CAIR-Ohio

(CENTERVILLE, OHIO 10/21/2021) — On Saturday, Oct. 16, 2021, the Ohio Chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR-Ohio) was thrilled to help commemorate the opening of a new recreation center at the Islamic Center of Centerville. The new recreation center and packed open house event was a signifier of a growing Muslim community in Centerville, and CAIR-Ohio was present to provide free legal help and information to empower community members.

CAIR-Ohio is disappointed in the the Ohio State Board of Education’s decision to repeal the anti-racism resolution which outlined crucial steps towards racial equity in Ohio schools. Condemning White supremacy and teaching an accurate historical account of racial injustice does not create division, but rather inspires forward-thinking change. We will continue to work towards racial equity in Ohio schools.

If you would like to request free legal help, call our office at (614) 451-3232 or use this online form.

Facing problems? CAIR-Ohio will be offering free legal help to community members at the Noor Islamic Cultural Center on Friday, October 15 & 22 from noon to 3:30PM!

For questions contact CAIR-Ohio Staff Attorney Lina Abbaoui: 614.982.0879 | labbaoui@cair.com
