OICA's Fall Forum—Oct. 12 (Virtual), Oct. 14 & 15 (In-Person), & Oct. 16 (Virtual)

OICA’s Annual Fall Forum is the first step in changing laws to make Oklahoma a better state for its children. Child advocates from across Oklahoma gather to hear from subject matter experts on the topic, then break out to develop a list of recommendations for OICA’s annual Children’s Legislative Agenda, a series of proposals presented to lawmakers to improve the legal environment as it relates to the state’s children. The event also includes OICA’s annual Fall Child Advocacy Awards, recognizing outstanding advocates across an array of professions, all of whom work to make children’s lives better.
