Board of Trustees
About Us
The OACB Board of Trustees is composed of 13 board member trustees and 6 superintendent trustees. Board member trustees are elected from the membership to two-year terms at the Annual Delegate Assembly, which occurs during the association's Annual Convention each fall. Superintendent trustees are selected by the leadership of the Ohio Superintendents of County Boards of DD and serve one-year terms.
OACB strives to ensure the representation of people with developmental disabilities and their family members on the Board of Trustees.
