A program for children with developmental disabilities in Clermont County is at risk of ending. The program, known as GOT Respite, has been serving parents in the area for years. A failed levy is now threatening the program's future.

  • A levy failure in May is causing funding cuts that will affect the program starting in 2027.
  • The program costs around $50,000 annually to operate, with approximately $2,000 spent every Saturday.
  • The board is planning a mailer campaign to reach out to potential business sponsors and individuals who can help fundraise to keep GOT Respite going.
