We love working with the Legislative Service Commission to share information about the developmental disability community!
In May, the Ohio Department of Developmental Disabilities hosted the group for an informative seminar, during which they toured Heinzerling Community and Open Door Art Studios. The group enjoyed their time learning more about how DODD interacts with other organizations/businesses to provide valuable services for those who qualify. Special thanks to Kyle Moore, MBA ('15) and Jeremiah Wagner for helping coordinate this seminar as well as to the staff and patrons of the sites we visited! #lscfellowship #stategovernment #publicservice #teamohio #stateofohio
