Claudia has been married to her husband Jim, a dentist and councilman in Norman, for 40 years. They proudly raised their family in Norman and continue to call it their home. Claudia has a wealth of leadership experience that will make her an extremely competitive candidate in the upcoming 2012 cycle.

Claudia is a Registered Nurse with a Masters in Public Health from the University of Oklahoma. She worked in an array of medical positions including neurosurgical units and was Norman Regional Hospital’s first full time Patient Education Coordinator. Griffith also worked at Cleveland County Health department and was a program consultant at Oklahoma University Health promotions, working with Native American tribes all over the United States on health issues. She has the ability to communicate effectively and efficiently the issues of health care, jobs and the economy to voter’s and community leaders.

Claudia and her husband are active parents and community leaders. As PTA president at Jefferson Elementary, Longfellow Middle School and Norman North High, Griffith was the woman who got things done.  She was active in the Boy Scouts of America, Center for Children and Families and is currently on the Board of Middle Earth Day Care, a non-profit early child center. Claudia’s children all have graduated or are attending the University of Oklahoma and continue to be active community members.

Both Claudia and Jim are members of the Norman Chamber of Commerce. She will protect the middle class, encourage prosperity for business and jobs by providing better education, and build healthy communities. Griffith is an independent thinker who will appeal to those on the other side of the isle. This is the right woman and the right time to take back SD 15.
