ADVOCACY TOOLKIT
Support Our Advocacy in the FY 24-25 State Budget!
This Ohio Children’s Alliance toolkit is focused on empowering you to advocate for the Ohio General Assembly’s support of children’s mental health services as part of the current biennial state budget process.
Our state’s mental health sector is facing the worst supply and demand dynamics in modern history. Investing in children’s mental health is an investment in our state’s future.
These resources can help you make sure your voice is heard.
