Saturday Advocacy Wins to Share!

Each week we want to highlight advocacy wins of the week on our page that we see happening around Ohio. An advocacy win is something good that happens in the world of advocacy or self advocacy. If you want to share something that happened in the world of advocacy in Ohio please email us we will include it in our weekly wins in Advocacy Post next week.

  • Several advocacy groups in Ohio advocated to change the rules around paid family caregivers for minors. They got a victory which allows parents/family members to only have to search for a new provider once every year instead every four months.
  • Ohio Advocate Dawn shared a success about being able to get accommodations for a friend who was trying to get services through Opportunities for Ohioans with disabilities.
  • A women in Huron County, Ohio shared about advocating for genetic testing and getting insurance to cover it.
