The Office of Disability Concerns was previously known as The Office of Handicapped Concerns. This name change resulted from passage of House Bill 1084 in of the Oklahoma Legislature in 2007. 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, |
