The University of Cincinnati Center for Excellence in Developmental Disabilities (UCCEDD)’s vision was read on the Ohio Senate floor on May 25. Senator Antonio referenced our vision as she encouraged the Senate to pass SB202 Prohibiting discrimination on the basis of disability in parenting. Senator Antonio worked with our advocacy workgroup on the issue and connected our vision to her learnings. The bill then passed unanimously in the Senate. The bill will now return to the House for resolution before final passage.
You can see our vision being read here, at around the 59:30 mark:
