The Governor’s Office for Women’s Initiatives and Outreach promotes public policy that advances the status of Ohio’s women and girls, thereby strengthening our communities and families. The office maintains a diverse approach, and focuses on economic development, health, education, personal safety and other areas impacted by state government.
While collaborating with state agencies and non-governmental entities, the office creates public dialogue to assess the needs of the women and girls of Ohio. Reaching across geographic area, race/ethnicity and socioeconomic level, this discourse provides a unique opportunity for women and girls to articulate personal experience and influence public policy.
