We’ve Rebranded!
ADA Cleveland has rebranded to be the Northeast Ohio Coalition of Disability Organizations (NOCDO). This name better suits who we are and what we do.
The purpose of NOCDO is to encourage and support the collaboration of NOCDO Members within Greater Cleveland in order to advocate for and promote the promise of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) through public awareness, sharing resources and information, networking, and representing the diversity of the disability community.
We can’t wait to let you know what we have in store for this year!
