NDAA Announces New President – First Woman to Hold the Office

The National District Attorneys Association has a new president: Sacramento County District Attorney Jan Scully! Public CEO notes that her appointment is significant for several reasons:

As the first woman president of NDAA since it was founded in 1950, Scully continues a long history of breaking new ground for women in her field.  In 1994, Scully became the first woman to be elected Sacramento County District Attorney.  In 2005, she became the first woman to serve as president of the California District Attorneys Association (CDAA).  That same year, Scully started serving on NDAA’s Board of Directors as vice president and was elected president at NDAA’s 2010 annual conference.

Congratulations to Ms. Scully!
