Radio St. Pete INSIDER news director Nanette Wiser interviewed founders Jake Hornstein and Greg Hill: Our Children Have Rights OCHR.org. March 2024

Their mission is to protect the rights of children to have access to their parents by providing education, resources, and support services for successful co-parenting strategies from navigating parental plans and custody arrangements to tips for dealing with ex-spouses that are good for the children’s mental health and wellness. OCHR is a partner with Cornerstone Connections and Gulf Coast JFCS.  Cornerstone Connections serves parents in five counties throughout Central Florida. Gulf Coast JFCS serves parents in Pinellas, Hillsborough, Pasco-Hernando & Miami-Dade.  Both programs assist unemployed or under employed non-custodial parents with skills and tools needed to establish a pattern of regular child-support payments. This includes career search, job retention, interview training/resume writing, guidance on child support issues, and more.  “Helping parents access these programs provides a greater benefit to our society by keeping individuals with barriers to employment out of the criminal justice system, saving our state money.  Above all, it further ensures a child’s access to both accountable parents,” says Hornstein. Adds Hill: “Our Children Have Rights is here to help. We are a Pinellas-based nonprofit that helps parents more seamlessly navigate their child custody and co-parenting journeys, at no cost to the family.  We were recently recognized with the AMPLIFY Clearwater “Community Spirit Award.” Email Jake at JakeHornstein@OurChildrenHaveRights.com or visit www.OCHR.org.  #OCHR #stpete #stpetefl #tampabay #radio #radiostpete #nanettewiser
