Company History
CT Voices was founded in 1995 by four women, each with a long history of work on behalf of children and their families - attorneys Shelley Geballe and Judith Solomon, and psychologists Janice Gruendel and Nancy Lustman. Voices operates with a small but highly talented group of staff members, Young Policy Fellows, an citizen volunteers from the fields of education, law, public health, business and government.
This multi-disciplinary, multi-community approach enables us to offer new insights on complicated economic problems. We are committed to a strategic communications process and to tactical support for citizen and organizational action. Because we understand that change is best built upon successes rather than deficits, we are committed as well to the promotion of resilience among our children and our communities.
We believe that children are the future, but that we must invest in them now if they are to become successful and contributing citizens, parents, workers and leaders.
