The Children’s Village has been honored by The Child Welfare League of America and the Walker Trieschman Center as this year’s winner of the 2010 David Liederman Award. This competitive award is designed to recognize innovators in leadership development and workforce practices. Children's Village was selected for its best practices in strategic planning, management training and development, Board involvement, cultural competence, and leadership and the child welfare field. The award was presented at CWLA's 90th Anniversary Gala on January 26 in Washington, DC.
The CWLA award comes on the heels of CV's receiving the 2009 Agency of the Year award from the Alliance for Children and Families. CV is honored to be recognized as a leader by both organizations. These awards are recognition of CV's committed and talented staff who work hard to positively impact the lives of children and families in our community.

The terrifically vulnerable , multiply besieged, struggling kids and families who seek help to heal their wounds and develop their potential deserve respect and an actualized quality of excellent helping service.
These awards indicate that the practical idealism with which Mr. Kohomban began his career in community service has continued, and even strengthened and that the traditionally competant services at CV have been, through his guidance further refined and enhanced to become realized excellence.
This is good news for all those wounded familes and children who rely on the public venue to help and at the very least to do no further harm.
A BIG Kudo, and hope that his model can be replicated.
