The Board of Directors of the Jefferson Area Board for Aging (JABA) is pleased to announce that it has hired Judith Selzer as its new Chief Executive Officer to succeed Marta Keane, who is retiring after 12 years at the helm.  Ms. Selzer will assume her new position on January 13, 2025.

Dick Gibson, JABA Board Chair, shared that “JABA conducted an extensive national search for its new CEO and selected Judith from among many highly qualified candidates.  She comes to us with a 25 year career, mainly in the non-profit healthcare enterprise sector. She has spent her career to date helping others and making the world a better place to live.”  Ms. Selzer has provided executive coaching, led non-profits, and collaborated with other leaders to create a thriving community.

Ms. Selzer feels “this is a transformative moment in the world of healthy aging, and I’m passionate about joining JABA where I will have the privilege of working with colleagues and volunteers to ensure everyone has the opportunity to live their healthiest, most empowered life.”

JABA is fortunate to benefit from Ms. Selzer’s experience, business acumen and compassion.
