Dear Neighbor,
 

It’s a bittersweet feeling when it comes to my friend and colleague, Sen. Ceci Maher.

I had the privilege of knowing Ceci long before she became a legislator, and I’ve seen firsthand her deep commitment to public service. When she came to the General Assembly, she brought that same dedication to advocating for Connecticut’s children and families across our state.

It has been an absolute pleasure working alongside her, especially as my partner and co-chair of the Children’s Committee. I valued her greatly as a thoughtful collaborator in our shared work to strengthen child welfare, expand behavioral health supports, and address issues like food insecurity and free school meals.

As a licensed master social worker, her passion for protecting and supporting children has always guided her work. I will miss working with her tremendously and am grateful for her leadership and partnership. I wish her continued success and all the very best in what comes next.

Sincerely,

Corey P. Paris
State Representative
