During Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, it’s especially meaningful to see one of our own being recognized for the incredible work she’s doing. Big congratulations, Courtney! 🎉 Your dedication to advocating for people with developmental disabilities and helping create more opportunities and understanding throughout Delaware County truly makes a difference. We are so proud of you and can’t wait to see the great things you’ll accomplish on the council! 👏🧡
We would like to congratulate our Outreach Advocate, Courtney, on her recent appointment by Governor Mike DeWine to the Ohio Statewide Independent Living Council!
The Ohio Statewide Independent Living Council is an organization that plans and speaks up for people with disabilities. The Ohio SILC wants to help people with disabilities take charge of their lives, get support from others, help themselves, make their own choices, have the same opportunities, and speak up for themselves.
Courtney has been a lifelong advocate for herself and others and has worked at DCBDD for over six years. In her role, Courtney works with the community to educate organizations, businesses, students, and other community members on how to create a more accessible and inclusive Delaware County.
We are so proud of this accomplishment and know Courtney will do great things on the OSILC! Congratulations Courtney!
