A special morning with my mom planting pinwheels in honor of Donate Life Month. Thank you @nbc4i for sharing our story. We helped plant 11,000 (# of lives saved at @OSUWexMed) pinwheels- each w. 8 spokes & one stem, symbolic of the 8 lives that 1 person can save through donation.
Happy International Women’s Day!
Today, we celebrate the incredible women whose leadership supports people served and their families, especially those at DODD and across Ohio’s developmental disability community.
.@RudysStrudel & @MalleysCHOC just created a chocolate-and-toffee paczki that has become "the most Cleveland thing ever!"
Topped with Malley’s iconic green and pink sugar, this Fat Tuesday favorite is available now, only at Rudy’s. ⬇

Congratulations to Cleveland on being recommended as the host community for the 2030 Special Olympics USA Games. We look forward to the final steps of the bid being completed and then welcoming athletes, families, and fans from across the country to enjoy all that Cleveland has to offer – from its world-class sports venues and unique attractions to the enthusiasm of its people!
This is welcome news while on maternity leave w. @oneilohio the past 6 weeks and being subjected to NBA, NHL, soccer - MLS & EPL, golf, tennis, college football reruns (?), college baseball and softball, college lacrosse, oh, & never ending MLB games. Give me trash tv, anything..
We have officially reached the most depressing stretch of the year for sports fans
- 73 days until the NFL season
- 106 days until NHL hockey returns
- 120 days until NBA basketball is back
As part of our work to recognize March as Developmental Disabilities Awareness Month, @DODDohio has added three wall-sized murals in their Columbus office that will brighten this space for years to come. Today, I was happy to be with many of the talented Ohio artists with disabilities who created these pieces for an event celebrating their fantastic work!
You may think getting in line at 2:15 a.m. for paczki is crazy, but it’s not just about the paczki — it’s about the people, the tradition and the party! 🎶🎊 How are you celebrating today?
🎤 In our latest podcast episode, hear from Nicholas and others from across the state about what advocacy means to them! The responses are powerful, passionate, thoughtful, and meaningful. You don't want to miss this one!
