Enhanced OBB Counselor Series
On the second Wednesday of each month OASHF hosts a series of webinars titled the "Enhanced OBB Counselor Series." OASHF strives to provide OBB sites and counselors with informational resources, so that OBB counselors and sites can in turn pass on that information on to their clients and friends. Each webinar is open to anyone seeking to better serve Ohioans in need. The topics will vary, and will include information on programs beyond the scope of OBB, such as SSDI and financial education. Each webinar begins at 12 noon and lasts one hour, with each ending with a Q & A session.
