The Genesee County Youth Bureau -- which also runs Batavia's program -- has a new director, Jocelyn Sikorski.
Sikorski, who has worked for the bureau for 13 years, most recently as program coordinator, was tops in a field of four candidates.
The Ways and Means Committee voted unanimously Wednesday to recommend to the full legislature approval of her appointment, and to approve her change of status into the management tier of the county's salary structure.
Sikorski will earn $44,209 in her new position.
The Batavia High School graduate is married, lives in Genesee County, and is the mother of a 6-year-old and a 9-month-old. She also attended Genesee Community College and has a bachelor's degree, which she completed while working for the county full time.
Earlier this year, previous Director Deb Kerr-Rosenbeck retired.
Sikorski said she isn't planning any big changes for the youth bureau.
"I think a lot of what we’ve been able to bring into the county over the past couple of years with federal and state grants have really expanded our services," Sikorski said. "I just look to continue doing that, either through those avenues or other avenues that may come along."
