Ellyn Hefner and Advocacy Part Two: ADA Celebration and School Inclusion

Per 501(c)3 rules, it is important to note that Oklahoma Family Network cannot and does not endorse any one candidate for any reason.  The purpose of this podcast is to bring awareness, conversation, education, and support to families who have children with special health care needs or disabilities.  Ellyn's personal journey takes her to candidacy level advocacy, and you will hear about some of that today.

 

Thank you for joining us today on the Oklahoma Family Network's podcast to learn more from families who have children with special health care needs and disabilities and hear ideas on how you can get more involved with advocacy efforts in your area. 

 

Part two of our conversation with Ellyn has highlights and conversations focused on big advocacy work she's done in the community and with schools.  Celebrating the 25th Anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act as well as her experience receiving her education from a Catholic school and having that desire for her children as well.
