Due to recent changes in Ohio law, Ohioans Against Extremism cannot accept financial or in-kind contributions from foreign nationals or individuals who legally reside in the United States with a green card but are not yet a U.S.Citizen. Therefore, organizations or entities that become each OAE community partner affirms by signing the partnership agreement that it is not a foreign national, as the term is defined in Ohio Revised Code 3517.121(A)(2), and none of the underlying funds provided to the grantee come from a foreign national.
Entities are eligible for partnership if and only if they are values-aligned in mission. OAE reserves the right to decline or discontinue partnerships with entities that are not aligned with Ohioans Against Extremism guiding principles and values.
