Developing Connections Northeast Ohio (DCNEO) - Formerly Dancing Classrooms Northeast Ohio
Founded in 2008, Developing Connections Northeast Ohio, formerly known as Dancing Classrooms Northeast Ohio (DCNEO), is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that uses movement (dance) as a vehicle to change the lives of its student participants.
DCNEO has always been, and will continue to be, about developing connections.
In July 2025, the “D” and the “C” in DCNEO evolved to Developing Connections.
WHY? Like the students we serve, the organization has grown and led us to refine how we present our brand to better reflect and serve our greater mission.
Developing Connections reflects what we truly do: help students connect with themselves, their classmates, and the world around them in a manner that is safe, kind, and helpful.
Dancing Classrooms is our premier program.
