AOC kicked off the 35-day 2024 legislative “short” session on Feb. 5, with a full day of internal policy meetings followed by our 2nd Annual Open House. The event proved again to be a great success, bringing legislative and state agency leaders together with county commissioners and judges for networking and relationship building. Feedback from members and partners was enthusiastically positive, and AOC Executive Director Gina Nikkel confirmed that AOC will make the first day of session AOC Open House an annual event.
