Today, State Senator Ceci Maher (D-Wilton) issued the following statement after Governor Lamont announced Susan Hamilton, the current general counsel for the Department of Children and Families, will serve as interim commissioner following the retirement of Commissioner Jodi Hill-Lilly:

“I welcome Susan Hamilton as the interim DCF commissioner. Her extensive background in DCF, in law, in social work and in child welfare are important components in the work ahead for Connecticut’s children and families. As we look to the future of DCF, my hope is that children’s welfare will also include a commitment to behavioral health support for all our children to best serve them now and in the future. I look forward to working with Commissioner Hamilton in the months ahead.”
