| Info | Jerry Hammond, longtime Columbus City Councilman and community and government affairs professional, has been appointed by the Franklin County Commissioners to serve a four-year term on the Franklin County Children Services Board.
Hammond was President of Hammond and Associates, a consulting practice specializing in community and public affairs, community and government relations, and marketing communications. He began the practice in 1990 and retired it at the end of 2006.
His service on Columbus City Council ran from 1974 through 1990, where he was President of Council from 1984 through 1990. His accomplishments include creation of the Legislative Research Office and the neighborhood commissions, which advise Council on issues such as zoning, that affect their areas. He was also a leader in the development of the downtown area, in funding for arts and conventions, and for initiatives in education, human services and minority affairs.
Hammond has served as Executive Assistant to the President of Columbus Southern Power (now American Electric Power), and as Bureau Chief for the Ohio Department of Economic and Community Development. Former positions include those at the Columbus Area Chamber of Commerce, City of Columbus, Training Institute of Central Ohio, and Franklin County Children Services.
"During the early part of my career I was working with kids," he said, "and now I have the opportunity to come back to that. I want to serve the Franklin County Children Services Board in any way I can, and look forward to contributing to the mission of protecting our community's children and helping their families."
Hammond has served on many boards and commissioners during his distinguished career, including Rickenbacker Port Authority, Ameriflora, United Way and the National Urban Policy Roundtable. He is the recipient of more than 200 community service and achievement awards.
