Board
A board of seven volunteers oversees Cuyahoga DD’s work.
- Each board member serves a four-year term and can be reappointed two times for a total of 12 years.
- Two members are appointed by the Cuyahoga County Probate Court judge. One member must be a family member of a child or adult eligible for services.
The Cuyahoga County Executive, with approval from the Cuyahoga County Council, appoints the other five members. One of these members must be a family member of a child receiving services, and another must be a family member of an adult receiving services.
