Darke County League of Women Voters...
State Officers Flack, Henkener to visit local group in August 

Meg Flack, Co-President of the League of Women Voters of Ohio and Ann Henkener, a state League Director, will be joining  local League members in welcoming prospective new members for their August 8th LWV new member meeting.  Members are again looking forward to sharing the evening with Meg and Ann, remembering the fun and informative time of Meg’s last visited. 

Meg has served on the League of Women Voters of Ohio state board as president, secretary and chair of the Advocacy Committee.  She looks forward to continuing to work with members throughout the state.  She has a long history of community volunteerism and has held leadership positions with Court Appointed Special Advocates of Franklin County, Voices for Children and Families and the Junior League of Columbus.  Flack holds a Master’s Degree in Public Policy and Management and a Doctorate in Sociology from The Ohio State University, where she formerly taught sociology. 

Ann has spearheaded the Voters First Initiative, a move to put voter redistricting on the ballot.  If the initiative is successful. the responsibility of drawing up voter districts will be on the shoulders of a panel of citizens representing both parties rather than the whim of which ever party is the majority in office.  Ann received her bachelor’s degree in sociology from The Ohio State University and her  doctorate from Capitqal University Law School.  She served eight years as in-house counsel for a non-profit health care organization in Columbus.  As an Assistant Attorney General, she spend twenty years representing the State of Ohio in regulating health care and public utilities.  She has been a board member of the League of Women Voters of Ohio since 2007 and is the League’s Legislative Director, focusing on redistricting. 

Both women bring a wealth of information about the organization and its direction for the future.  Involvement of local members in bringing education about issues to the community are prime goals of the state and national League of Women Voters.  They will be available at the meeting, planned for the Chestnut Village Center, to answer questions and provide insights on various state and national issues. 

Those attending will also meet  League members and enjoy finger food as they learn about the state organization and the Darke County League’s plans for the coming year.  For information about the League of Women Voters of Darke County or the August 8th get together, call Shirla Neff, 937.548.5378.
