The City of Oxford is Developing a NEW Comprehensive Plan
The city of Oxford is in the beginning stages of the next comprehensive plan. Talawanda School District has a voice on the city Recreation Board, and we've been asked to share the website Oxford Tomorrow, where community members can provide input and stay informed about this process.

March is Problem Gambling/Gaming Awareness Month. The earlier individuals are introduced to gambling, the more likely they are to become problem gamblers as adults. Many of the video games and apps our youth are involved in simulate the same excitement experienced by gamblers. According to Ohio for Responsible Gambling, 10% - 14% of youth ages 12-17 are at risk; possibly made worse by the pandemic. Resources are available for parents, students and educators through Change the Game Ohio. Visit the site at https://changethegameohio.org
For more information, contact the Health & Wellness Office at 513.273.3390.
