Married to the Presiding Judge in Jefferson County AL

Cameron Vowell is spending time with us as we blog to raise awareness about domestic violence, however she is not new to this arena as she is married to Presiding Judge Scott Vowell. Judge Vowell is the Presiding Judge of Jefferson County, AL and has played a crucial role in helping to get the domestic violence court up and rolling in the State of Alabama.
The Vowells have dedicated their time, lives and passion to making a difference in the lives of so many others. Cameron recently finished a five year term on the State Ethics Commission in Montgomery, Alabama.
Taking a break might sometimes seem impossible, but Mrs. Vowell always makes the time to keep tabs on their 22 year old son who is currently in Washington DC working for Congressman Artur Davis. This is a family that is committed to community service, and taking their civic responsibility serious.
The Vowells have set the pace in an arena where victims might not have known their name, but this family is constantly dedicated to the cause behind the scenes, and in front when and where necessary.
Mrs. Vowells, has served on the Board of the Women's Fund and been an active member since it's inception. From the very first day of the conversation, even before the doors would open, she was part of making it happen.
Mrs. Vowells says that wat she enjoys most about the domestic violence initiative, is watching brilliant women come together to answer the call of sisterhood with one voice in reducing violence, educating the public, developing programs, moving forward initiatives, setting the pace for advancement in the courts, and building the partnerships to make it happen.
