Representatives from the OHIO Youth Advisory Board and ACTION Ohio (Alumni of Care Together Improving Outcomes Now) partnered to make the youth empowerment presentation during the 2015 Ohio CASA conference a success.
Youth panelists included:
- Shameka Smith
- Brittany Jackson
- Hunter Daniels
ACTION Ohio representatives were:
- Olena Sowers
- Doris Edelmann
- Lisa Dickson
Foster care youth, alumni and allies were able to meet with Senator Rob Portman, and thank him for being a champion for our youth -- particularly those who "age out" of foster care and experience couch surfing.
