Orleans County Citizen
Advocacy, Inc. Building and supporting One-To-One relationships between community volunteers and people with disabilities...reaching for the stars Orleans County Citizen Advocacy (OCCA) matches in one-to-one relationships a volunteer (advocate) with people with developmental disabilities (partner). Through these matches, we help build a stronger sense of community where everyone, regardless of their ability, is included and valued. Ultimately, people feel more empowered, form important bonds, and become more responsive to at-risk citizens. We were founded in October 1988 and since then we've made over 60 matches, and currently support 23 relationships. Our goal is to make 8 matches a year. Copyright
