OSCA/OCA Legislative Advocacy Day

Join OSCA and OCA for Legislative Advocacy Day on April 13, 2021. This year LAD will be held virtually, starting at 9:00AM and ending by 3:00PM, and registration is free for members and nonmembers.

LAD is an opportunity for counselors across Ohio to interact and advocate for the profession. We are excited to welcome several state Representatives and Senators to present on legislation and topics related to the profession. Sessions will include: 

• Rep. Sara Carruthers discussing the new House Behavioral Health & Recovery Supports Committee
• Rep. Jamie Callender discussing new school funding legislation
• Sen. Teresa Fedor discussing policies providing COVID-19 flexibility for schools
• Rep. Jessica Miranda discussing school counselor job description legislation

The day before the event, registrants will receive an email that includes a Zoom link for each session as well as a finalized agenda.

Because this is a free event, please consider making a small donation to the OSCA Political Action Committee. The OSCA PAC exists to provide financial support to candidates who have proven to be allies and supportive of education and the school counseling profession.
