Welcome Toledo-Lucas County

Welcome Toledo-Lucas County The Welcome Toledo-Lucas County Initiative works to build a welcoming and inclusive community for immigrants, refugees, and people of diverse cultures.

Welcome TLC is a cross-sector network of government, community, and business leaders, including immigrants, refugees, and people of diverse cultures. We launched in 2014 with resolutions of support by both Lucas County and Toledo City Council. In 2019, Lucas County, through leadership of Welcome TLC, achieved national designation as a Certified Welcoming community, becoming only the second county

in the country and the second community in Ohio to receive the designation. Join the Welcome TLC newsletter to stay in the loop and learn how you can help Toledo-Lucas County build a welcoming and inclusive community for all. https://mailchi.mp/399adfe64035/welcometlc
