SomaliCAN Outreach Newsletter

Welcome to the SomaliCAN Outreach Newsletter!
This is a Monthly Newsletter sponsored by the Ohio Developmental
Disabilities Council’s Outreach Subcommittee to provide information and
resources to the underserved Somali population and to promote more inter-

The goal is to give information and resources to the community and to promote
cultural competence in agencies providing services to the un-served and
underserved populations in Ohio.
The SomaliCAN Outreach Newsletter will do the following:
• Increase the awareness of services available
• Increase awareness of grant and funding opportunities
• Increase understanding of issues that impact minorities with
developmental disabilities
• Include an analysis & summary of polling
• Answer Frequently Asked Questions
• Navigating the Service System
• Various diversity/cultural competence highlights and Outreach Messages.
