Letter from the Director...

I received a call the other day reporting some exciting news that occurred at the Statewide Child Support Fall Conference.  Lois Stubbs, Modification Specialist,  was honored by receiving the Outstanding Child Support Employee of the Year Award for the State of Ohio.  What an accomplishment by one of our staff members!  All of us at our agency are proud of Lois and proud to have our county highlighted at the state level.

Lois has been employed with our agency for 17 years.  She has a unique personality that combines genuineness, compassion, and a willingness to help others that puts people at ease and calms those who are frustrated.  She has been instrumental in creating agency tracking and monitoring databases and has shared her expertise by teaching others in a classroom setting.  Lois created and formulated the Child Support Calculator which is an Excel tool that is used throughout the State.
