Explain Why You Would Like To Serve On The Oakland Community Health Network:
Am the parent of a child with disabilities, who's peer group and friends also have
disabilities, 1 know both first and second hand what it is like navigating our education
system, services and supports from birth to adult. Gabbie will turn 18 in February and
the process of transferring to adult services is a long process. The COVID 19 pandemic
has made me think a lot deeper on how we care for our children and adults here in
Oakland County. I believe in leaving each place better than you found it and I'm
hoping to have the chance to do just that with the OCHN Board.
