Pulse on Ohio

Issue 1

October 2023

Welcome to the first issue of Pulse on Ohio! This new column in the Ohio Career Development Association's monthly newsletter is produced by the Government Relations Committee and will keep you informed on a variety of topics including advocacy, legislation that we're tracking, and related professional development, and is intended to be your dose of information that helps you advocate for those you serve and our profession.

The new Government Relations Committee is in its early stages of building out our team and we are looking for representation from all of our constituency groups. Currently, we have representation from our higher education and private practice constituency groups. If you are interested in joining the committee we are seeking individual in the following constituency groups:

- Graduate Students/Counselor Educators & Researchers

- K-12 School Career Counselors

- Government & Advocacy

- Workforce Development/Agencies

- Business/Industry/Employers

Interested prospective and current OCDA members do not need to have any advocacy, government, or political experience! All you need to have is an interest in learning and desire to join the committee.

The Government Relations Committee is responsible for listening to all of our constituency groups in order to educate and inform our OCDA leadership on policies and impact of government relations on our work, as well as potential and pending legislation that our organization may want to weigh in on. The committee plans to meet monthly for one hour virtually and there will be opportunities to be more or less involved based on your current bandwidth. If you are interested, please contact the Government Relations Chair: Sarah JanTausch at sarah@valuesbasedcareers.com.

Stay tuned for more information because we will be sharing information on the website and social media channels in the near future.
