Treasurer of the Commonwealth of Kentucky and Advocate for Financial Literacy

[link removed]

Independent Women’s Forum is pleased to announce that Allison Ball, Treasurer of the Commonwealth of Kentucky, is the latest in our popular series of Champion Women profiles ([link removed]) .

Allison had never run for office when she launched her campaign for state Treasurer. Ball not only won but got the most votes of any other candidate on the ballot in both 2015, when she was elected, and 2019, when she was re-elected.

The office of state treasurer is a nuts-and-bolts job, but Ball added another dimension to it: helping Kentuckians gain financial literacy. She has launched financial programs for Kentuckians with disabilities and promoted financial skills for women.

Ball had her first brush with acquiring financial skills when her parents decided she was squandering her allowance. She quickly started selling pencils with inspirational slogans on them and made more than her allowance.

Ball was president of The Federalist Society at the University of Kentucky Law School. She and a friend started a law practice specializing in bankruptcy, which taught her a lot about how people get in financial trouble. She often spars with Kentucky Governor Andy Beshear, a Democrat.

Ball became the first statewide elected official to give birth while in office when her son Levi Adrian Swan was born in 2018.

We know you will enjoy meeting this young official who looks to have a bright future in Kentucky politics and perhaps beyond.
