Lillian Koller profiled in Governing

Lillian Koller, Hawaii Director of Human Services, is profiled in the September issue of Governing magazine. The article describes how, soon after being appointed by Gov. Linda Lingle to that position, she changed confidentiality rules in child welfare "essentially by administrative fiat." Senators Suzanne Chun Oakland and Rosalyn Baker comment on Koller's "take-no-prisoners approach." Koller previously practiced law in California and ran the Maui drug court.
