LeadingAge Ohio members give voice to budget issues
As the biennium budget process continues, LeadingAge Ohio was asked to present testimony at the March 4 Ohio House Families, Aging, and Human Services Committee on challenges faced by aging services providers both before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. Last week’s Virtual Lobby Week closed with 20 different legislative visits.
LeadingAge Ohio extends its thanks to those of you who participated in the meetings. Virtual visits allowed LeadingAge Ohio members to ‘pack in’ far more than during a traditional lobby day (and, of course, required zero travel). Policy briefs created for communicating association priorities include: Nursing facility budget issue brief; Adult day budget issue brief; HCBS budget issue brief; PACE advocacy issue brief.
