I have been delighted by the warm reception from the dedicated Licking County staff, providers and families as we embark on this transitional chapter.

The search for a new superintendent is well underway thanks to the support of John Trunk from the Ohio Association of County Boards.  His many of years of service as a superintendent in our field make him invaluable as we navigate this process.

I was thrilled to participate in LCBDD’s Summer Kick Off.  Despite the rain, it was a tremendous success! The shared commitment of our community partners was shown in abundance. I’m sure you’ll agree with me as you peruse the pictures in our printed newsletter and on our social media pages.

Momentum Refresh was a valued partner at this event and will continue to be a constant at Licking County events this year.  Please be sure to check the calendar of events on our website  to see if they’ll be at events you intend to participate in. 

Thank you all for your warm welcome and I look forward to updating you as we move through this exciting time.
