I attended a meeting like no other- it was sponsored by OVR no less. It was a forum about how they should spend their money during the upcoming year. I enterend the room, saw what looked like one consumer, picked up a few papers, including a 70 page packet filed with statistics and numbers, and thought "oh boy" I'll try hard to be patient for a little while. Well it turned out to be a really spirited discussion of people's ideas and comments to improve services for the upcoming year. The directors there were really interested in receiving feedback and discussing their many programs- some of which I never knew about. A major concern was letting more people know that OVR existed.
