Governor Nathan Deal’s new appointments to state agencies that focus on children bring some young but proven leaders to kids’ issues. We are excited by the prospects of these very able and dedicated public servants joining current agency directors in working together and setting goals for children.
All have histories of cooperation and collaboration with child advocates and community service providers. We welcome them and offer our support to improve child well being and raise our national rankings from the 40s to respectable levels. Thank you, Governor Deal, and welcome to:
- Amy Howell, former deputy in DJJ who got her start at the Barton Child Law and Policy Center at Emory Law School, will be the new commissioner of DJJ.
- Rachelle Carnesale, former deputy of the Office of the Child Advocate, will lead the Department of Family and Chidren’s Services.
- Bobby Cagle, former DFCS legislative director, will lead the department of Early Care and Learning.
