In memory of Ray Jones 1945-2007

It is with great sympathy that UCP mourns the loss of our long time friend Ray Jones. Ray was a truly dedicated activist for the rights of people with disabilities. Ray served as a Board Member for UCP of Central Ohio for six years, after being an employee of UCP. During his time as a board member Ray championed the concept of our Consumer Council and self-advocacy opportunities for participants. Ray felt very strongly about participants having the opportunity to have input over their service delivery.
