Rise in Organ Donation; Ohio Women's March; Team Cleveland Represents at Cybathlon

A movement that champions women's rights is sweeping the country. Our Statehouse News Bureau reports on that push here in the Buckeye State.

A record number of Northeast Ohioans became organ, eye and tissue donors in 2016. What's behind the increase?

And what sounds like science fiction -- has become science fact, bringing another world championship to a Cleveland team. We go to Switzerland and behind the scenes at the world's first Cybathlon.
