Everyone Deserves Care shares real stories from Ohioans that have been affected by the Direct Care Workforce Crisis in order to educate the population and those in power to make change on the dire nature of this issue.
The stories are published weekly on Disability Rights Ohio's website and will be used as part of an advocacy campaign targeted at Ohio legislators to pursue systemic change on this issue.
We are interested in showing what life is like when you do and do not have care. We want to demonstrate how important this workforce is to the lives of so many.
