In 2008, Traci (TJ) Johnson was Elected Committee Woman of Ward 75 in Hilliard, Ohio. In the community she plays a pivotal role in organizing neighborhood associations and promoting public safety in her community. Her passion for people and volunteerism has become a life's mission. Agencies that assist the Blind, Homeless, Seniors, Recovering Alcoholics and Children encompass her 20 years of volunteerism.

Most recently Traci (TJ) Johnson is a member of the American Red Cross, Disaster Action Team. The Disaster Action Team are called to house fires. Many people don't realize that when the local fire department responds to a house fire, the American Red Cross of Greater Columbus also responds to the call. The Disaster Action Team volunteers are on call 24-hours a day, seven days a week, often leaving behind family and friends to help meet the emergency needs of those affected during the fire, providing shelter, food, clothing and medications.

The St. Stephen's Community House and Central Ohio Organized Labor collaboration began in 1982 through the inspirational leadership of former Columbus City Councilman John Maloney to provide children with at least one new toy and family holiday provisions. Since then, the Christmas Care/One New Toy program has served countless union families in the Greater Linden area. Central Ohio Labor Council Executive Director

Walter Workman says union members were glad to come together to help families during these difficult times: Hunger is hard. What began in 1982 as an effort to sustain families has grown into an annual effort that involves more than 200 labor volunteers. We do what has to be done for families—union and nonunion—who are in need.
