Meeting Topic:
Ohio Speaks is a new collaborative project of local and statewide health and human service organizations working to collect and highlight stories of struggle and hope. The stories will illustrate the value of human needs programs that support Ohio’s most vulnerable children, families, seniors, and people with disabilities. Ohio Speaks will also put a human face on budget cuts and show the effect of budget cuts in our communities. The stories will be used in our advocacy and education work with lawmakers, the media and the public to highlight the impact of human needs programs.
Join the webinar to learn more about Ohio Speaks and how to get involved as an individual or an organization.
You’ll hear from:
Gene King, Director, Ohio Poverty Law Center
