What is NOBLE?
Northern Ohioans for Budget Legislation Equality (NOBLE) is a grassroots coalition that was founded by May Dugan Multi-Service Center, Merrick House, and Organize! Ohio that is now supported by many other individuals and organizations. These include: Universal Health Care Action Network of Ohio, the Cleveland Catholic Diocese Social Action Office, The Community Partners for Affordable, Accessible Health Care, The Empowerment Center of Greater Cleveland, Stop targeting Ohio’s poor, United Clevelanders Against Poverty, Neighborhood Family Practice, We are the Uninsured, Lutheran Metro Ministry, and The Cleveland Tenants Organization. NOBLE is advised and provided data by Policy Matters Ohio.
We are a coalition of organizations and individuals working to get necessary funding for critical health and human services that are impacting our lives. It is our mission to protect and expand public health, safety, and welfare.
Based in Cleveland, we work to educate and mobilize communities across the state, to provide a citizen voice at the legislative level. NOBLE seeks to bring a collective community voice around health and human services funding in the biennium budget process, budget and budget correction bills.
NOBLE was born out of the need for a direct community response in 2003 when then Governor Taft proposed cuts that would have devastated health and human services in that biennium budget. Community education, engagement, and organizing began in January, 2003. The state budget was passed in June, 2003. Our efforts, along with those of others, helped save millions of dollars for health and human services in that state budget. With your help and support we can accomplish even more.
This year we will be working on the 2012-2013 state budget, advocating for a rollback of the business and income tax reforms in the past five years which have depleted the state's revenue. If you are helped by any health or human service (such as programs for the elderly, children, or the poor), and fear losing services you depend on, please contact Michael Cook at (216)771-5077 x136. You can also find us on Facebook. Together, we can fight to save these programs.
