One of PCSAO’s greatest
strengths has been our advocacy efforts, which is a key element to
delivering on our mission. We are proud to have, as part of
our legislative/advocacy staff, Gayle Channing Tenenbaum as the long
time Legislative Director, and newer member Greg Kapcar as the
Assistant Legislative Director. Gayle joined PCSAO in 1986, as
the Legislative Director, and has become the knowledgeable and
respected voice for children and other vulnerable populations
throughout
Ohio
. Greg joined PCSAO in May 2005 with twelve years experience
providing direct service to adults with mental illness, unruly
youth, and abused/neglected children as well as working on local and
statewide public policy issues impacting children and their
families. As a team they possess tremendous political
savvy during the legislative process, successfully merging value and
understanding of child welfare work, bringing coalitions of people
together to come to consensus on a course of action, and
successfully moving forward for policy change.
