State Senator Ceci Maher (D-Wilton), who was recently re-elected to serve a second term in the Connecticut State Senate, was today reappointed as the Senate Chair of the Committee on Children through 2026. In addition, she was named Vice Chair of the Human Services Committee; in her first term, Sen. Maher was Vice Chair of the Higher Education and Employment Advancement Committee.

“I could not be more proud to return to the Committee on Children for another term, continuing our work to benefit the children of our state,” said Sen. Maher. “We have plenty of important focuses and pressing issues in our state, ranging from children’s mental health care and support to preserving children’s safety, reducing inequalities and ensuring every youth in Connecticut has the opportunity to succeed.”

“With her extensive experience as a social worker, non-profit leader and community volunteer, Senator Maher remains constantly focused on benefitting the children of Connecticut and is the perfect choice to lead the Committee on Children for another term,” said Senate President Martin M. Looney. “I am certain that she will continue working in the best interests of the youth of our state.”
