“I’m honored to have been chosen to help guide CCAO’s leadership as we work to build stronger counties for a stronger Ohio,” Lieberman said in a statement.
Lieberman will lead the CCAO’s efforts to enhance the partnership between state and county. Additionally, she will lead the association to achieve policy goals like providing addition state support for county jail enhancements, protecting county revenue streams and relieving some of the unfunded state mandates on Ohio’s 88 counties.
This marks Lieberman’s second term at CCAO President. She previously served as president in 2012. She also served as vice president in 2021.
