Alone at the Border: Unaccompanied Children in Ohio
Latino Community Reports -OCHLA
Each year the Latino Affairs Commission compiles reports on topics relating to Ohio’s Hispanic community.
Our reports are designed to educate and facilitate discussion on particular challenges and opportunities facing Hispanic Ohioans.
Whenever possible, Latino Community Reports include data specific to state legislator districts and counties.
For some Latino Community Reports, however, it isn’t possible to find and cite data at the county or district level.
The Ohio Latino Affairs Commission endeavors to be a valuable resource to state government in understanding and serving the Hispanic community.
Please call Andrea Magaña Lewis at 614-728-8364 for further information and to help with outreach.

The Chamber's goal is to foster meaningful discussions on diversity and inclusivity, as a priority in business and community. Courageous conversations to feed our fundamental need to belong; from our place of business to our place of residence.
Diversity and inclusion is an issue which has evolved significantly in the past few years, from an emphasis on racial diversity to an emphasis on diversity of ideas and experiences. Most major companies have diversity and inclusion programs, although these often vary in scope and can focus on different things.
Some examples of diversity and inclusion initiatives which are fairly representative of the field include:
• Targeting new hiring to reflect the customer demographics (especially in international markets, this could include age, origin, ethnicity, gender, or sexual orientation)
• Hiring someone who comes from poverty with varied economic backgrounds with potential challenges that the employers need to consider
• Promoting company resource groups based on age, origin, ethnicity, gender, or sexual orientation
• Encouraging employees to put forth their ideas for new products to be considered by upper management
