Empowering Ohio Deputy Registrars

Advocacy Efforts

ODRAs advocacy work is driven by our commitment to ensuring that Ohio's Deputy Registrars have the support, tools, and representation they need to thrive in their roles. Our advocacy initiatives focus on several key issues:

Legislative Reform

We work closely with policymakers to influence legislative changes that improve the operational efficiency and regulatory environment for Deputy Registrars.

Funding and Resources

ODRA advocates for increased funding for Deputy Registrar offices to ensure they have the resources required to serve the public effectively. This includes advocating for technology upgrades and infrastructure improvements to enhance service delivery.

Policy Influence

Through regular meetings with government officials and stakeholders, we ensure that Deputy Registrars voices are heard on issues such as compliance, customer service challenges, and administrative burdens.
