NEXT COUNCIL MEETING: OCTOBER 16th, 2025

DIRECT CARE WORKFORCE CRISIS VIRTUAL FORUMS

Presented By the Ohio Olmstead Task Force and Ohio Centers for Independent Living

Thousands of Ohioans with disabilities are in crisis: they cannot find people to work as in-home direct care workers to help them with daily living tasks. These direct care workers help people with disabilities live independently in their homes and communities and stay out of unnecessary nursing homes and care facilities.

• Join us to hear some of their stories and the conversation between people with disabilities suffering from this crisis, Ohio legislators, and local city officials
• Learn what this direct care crisis is and ways that people with disabilities believe Ohio can fix its broken in-home care and support systems
