CCAO Welcomes Lori Baldridge as Membership Services Coordinator for OCERP

COLUMBUS, Ohio – The County Commissioners Association of Ohio (CCAO) is pleased to announce Lori Baldridge has joined the organization as Membership Services Coordinator for the Ohio County Employee Retirement Plan (OCERP).

Lori brings a wealth of experience in public service and deep knowledge of Ohio's counties to her new role. Most recently, she served as Deputy Elections Director for the Ohio Secretary of State and as a support and compliance administrator with the Ohio Department of Administrative Services/Ohio 9-1-1 program office, where she supported county and local government operations across the state. Prior to her state service, Lori dedicated nearly three decades as an educator in Southern Ohio.  

“We’re thrilled to welcome Lori to the CCAO team,” said CCAO Executive Director Cheryl Subler. “Her experience and longstanding dedication to Ohio's counties make her a perfect fit to support our members and strengthen participation in OCERP.”

OCERP is CCAO’s premier 457(b) deferred compensation plan, offered exclusively to Ohio’s 88 county governments and their affiliated agencies. Now celebrating its 40th year, the plan manages nearly $1 billion in assets and serves more than 22,000 participants, helping county employees prepare for a secure retirement.

In her role, Lori will serve as a key liaison for county officials and staff, increase engagement, and work directly with county human resource offices to educate on important features of the plan.
