RESOLUTION CONFIRMING THE NOMINATION OF CHRISTINA D. GHIO OF CHESHIRE TO BE THE CHILD ADVOCATE.
This bill confirms the Governor's nomination of Christina D. Ghio from Cheshire to serve as the Child Advocate, succeeding Sarah Healy Eagan. The resolution approves Ghio's appointment for a term lasting five years from the confirmation date or until a successor is appointed and qualified, whichever occurs later. This action directly affects the state's child advocacy office by officially establishing Ghio in her role. The measure is a procedural confirmation rather than a new policy initiative, focusing solely on validating the existing nomination.
