11/1/2007
The Office of Handicapped Concerns is
getting a new name. Beginning November 1, 2007 this
office will be called the Office of Disability Concerns.
This name change resulted from passage of House Bill
1084 in of the Oklahoma Legislature last year.
I applaud this effort which will reflect
a more current terminology in our agency name. We will
continue with our agency mission providing accurate and
timely information services, technical assistance and
advocacy. We act as an intermediary for persons with
disabilities and provide services to those with
disabilities.
Sincerely, Steve Stokes, Director
United We Stand
