Tobi Zavala appointed to ASWB Board of Directors

Zavala’s appointment fills a vacancy created in June by the resignation of Angie DeLille of Minnesota. As outlined in the association’s bylaws, the ASWB president makes the appointment to fill an unexpired term after receiving input and approval from the Board of Directors. Zavala will serve until a special election is held at the November 2024 Annual Meeting of the Delegate Assembly, when she will be eligible for election to the same position if otherwise qualified.

Tobi Zavala is the executive director of the Arizona Board of Behavioral Health Examiners, which regulates the practice of behavioral health professionals by licensing counselors, marriage and family therapists, social workers, and substance abuse counselors. She was appointed as the executive director of AZBBHE more than ten years ago after first serving as interim executive director, deputy director, and assistant director. She holds a BSW from Arizona State University.
