Nurses advocate for patients every day. ONA stands with survivors and demands accountability and justice.

ONA joined OSU survivors and advocates outside the OSU Longaberger Alumni House, calling for transparency, survivor recognition, and the removal of Les Wexner’s name from university facilities. Survivor advocate Rick Lucas, BSN, RN, CCRN, ONA President, was among those speaking out about the university’s continued failure to center survivors.

🎉 Happy National Women’s Equality Day! 🎉

Today, we honor the incredible women who’ve fought for equality and celebrate the progress we`ve made together. Let’s lift each other, champion our rights, and continue to break barriers! 💖

Nurses and health professionals know that equality means safe staffing so that patients get the care they deserve. It means ending workplace violence so health professionals can do their jobs without fear. And it means the basic respect every nurse and health professional has earned through their skill, compassion, and dedication. 💪

Here’s to strong women: may we know them, may we raise them, and may we be them!

When nurses and health professionals are forced to practice below the standard that patients deserve, that’s not a weakness. It’s a systemic failure.

Real change happens when we raise our voices together. Join us and help reclaim the power!

OSU survivors of abuse, ONA, students, and former athletes gathered yesterday outside the OSU Longaberger Alumni House during a Board of Trustees meeting.

We collectively called for the resignation of Board Chair John Zeiger and Vice Chair Elizabeth Kessler, citing conflicts of interest tied to longtime donor Les Wexner. The meeting proceeded with no resignations announced. Read the entire article in our bio titled "Protestors demand Ohio State trustees resign over Wexner ties."

Obesity contributes to billions in healthcare spending and is a preventable chronic disease. GLP-1 medications are clinically proven to improve outcomes and reduce downstream complications like diabetes and heart disease.

ONA supports:
• Expanding access to evidence-based obesity care.
• Medicaid coverage for GLP-1 medications.
• Ohio House Bill 388 to ensure coverage for state employees, including public hospital nurses and health professionals.

Public employees who care for Ohio families deserve access to the same evidence-based treatments we advocate for our patients.

Mobilize Against Strauss Sexual Abuse Defenders and Funders! Join survivors of abuse by Dr. Richard Strauss as they confront the Ohio State University Board of Trustees and call for the removal of John Zeiger and Liz Kessler.

We also demand the removal of Les Wexner’s name from university facilities, citing his documented financial and personal ties to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Institutions must reflect accountability and survivor-centered values.
