Awards continued→ Tell Us What YOU Think
Outstanding Achievement
Awarded
Hundreds of DRS employees gathered March 28 at the Doubletree
Hotel at Warren Center in Tulsa for the annual DRS Awards banquet.
Dr. Michael O’Brien encouraged agency employees to celebrate their
success, but more importantly, encouraged them to prepare
themselves to embrace finding ways to do their jobs better and
improve services to clients. While 36 percent of people with
disabilities have connections to work, he said there are still 64-
percent who do not, leaving the agency with a tremendous challenge
ahead.
Where’s DRS? PARIS!!!!
Visual Services Administrator
resigns
Dr. Michael Jones, Visual Services division administrator, resigned
his position April 5. Paul Adams will serve in that position until a
replacement can be named.
PWDAD 2013 continued→ Tell Us What YOU Think

Awareness Day 2013
THANK YOU!
More than 700 people braved bone-chilling rain last week to take
part in this year’s People with Disabilities Awareness Day, filling the
state Capitol and taking their stories to their lawmakers.
A total of 701 people attended the event as well as 69 exhibitors.
Several lawmakers remarked to volunteers about how impressed
they were by the turnout. Students for the Oklahoma School for the
Deaf gave out business card holders they had made, thanking
lawmakers for their continued support of the school.
