Agenda 360 to focus on people with disabilities

Regional issues for people with disabilities will be the focus at a public engagement session this evening.

Agenda 360 will meet with the public at the Hamilton County Board of MR/DD, 1520 Madison Road, from 4:30 PM-6:00 PM.

Modeled after Northern Kentucky's Vision 2015, Agenda 360 is meant to address five categories of work: Competitive Economy, Educational Excellence, Livable Communities, Urban Renaissance and Effective Governance.

The ultimate goal of Agenda 360 is to develop a regional action plan that will "transform Cincinnati USA, by the year 2020, into a leading metropolitan region for talent, jobs and economic opportunity for all who call our region home."

The effort is a product of Bold Fusion, the Cincinnati USA Regional Chamber's annual young professionals summit.

Admission to the event is free, but registration is encouraged.
