Joy Malek Oldfield has served the public as a judge for almost fifteen years, first in the Akron Municipal Court, and for the better part of the last ten years on the Summit County Common Pleas Court. She has dedicated her career to justice, compassion, and community.
The hallmark of Judge Oldfield’s judicial service has been her tireless work to impact and educate individuals on the disease of addiction and the beauty of recovery. Through her years on the bench, Judge Oldfield spearheaded various initiatives to try and meet all needs – physical, mental, social, emotional, spiritual – for those suffering from the disease of addiction.
Her innovations in this field have been widely recognized. Judge Oldfield founded Faith in Recovery – designed to provide interested participants a spiritual connection along their recovery journey; and, co-founded Y-STRONG, designed to provide participants with access to area YMCA facilities for physical wellness.
