In 1973, the Ohio Children’s Alliance was founded as Ohio’s first statewide child advocacy organization. We aim to ensure that Ohio’s evolving public policies result in a system that is integrated, efficient, cost effective, and beneficial to those that matter most – children and families. We work closely with state government officials, including leaders at ODJFS, OhioMHAS, the Governor’s office, General Assembly, and officials at the county and federal levels.
