Season 1, Episode 80 — June 1, 2026Length: 9:24

This week’s episode kicks off summer at ODHS with clear language, grocery support, and one very useful OWL page all packed into the cooler. With no new 4Minutes4U, no Fact of the Week, and no brand-new Deadline items, the focus shifts to reminders and updates that still matter as the season gets underway.

From Summer EBT returning for 2026 to a newly approved Spanish translation for ODDS, the episode highlights the practical work of making services easier to understand and access. The updated ODHS Transformation OWL page also gives staff a clearer place to find progress updates, FAQs, upcoming events, and next steps without having to chase information across multiple places.
