ABOUT US

The Young Professionals of Parma

COMMUNITY MINDED INDIVIDUALS

Parma needs the support of the next generation to bring new ideas that will bring positive changes to the city. 

We found people in their 20s and 30s who shared the same love and passion for Parma and its future.

Whether you’re from Parma,  a current resident or are curious about learning more, we encourage you to engage with us on social media, or better yet attend an event and get to know us. We look forward to meeting you!

We are a passionate group of young professionals living, working, having fun and helping to improve Parma. Our mission is to strengthen the community of Parma through networking, activism and local pride.

COMMUNITY MINDED INDIVIDUALS

WE ARE A NETWORK

Parma is the seventh largest city in Ohio, and Cleveland’s largest suburb. But with 80,000 people it can often be disconnected. Parma is unfortunately often stereotyped or forgotten as a viable option for young professionals to live and work.

Other areas like Tremont, Lakewood, Ohio City and Gordon Square have been revived by art, business, young professionals and other factors. We feel Parma can and will follow, but it needs our support to do so.

Parma’s cool, really.
