Meet County Executive Sara Innamorato

Sara Innamorato was sworn in as the first woman to serve as the Allegheny County Executive on January 2, 2024.  The Innamorato Administration’s guiding principle is to build a strong Allegheny County for All – one that serves all 1.3 million residents – built on a foundation of dignity and respect.

Between November 2023 and April 2024, County Executive Innamorato heard from residents countywide through the All In Allegheny survey, the largest, most diverse, and most inclusive community engagement initiative this county has ever seen. Those insights were reflected in the All In Allegheny Action Plan, with 91 specific steps to deliver on community priorities.

Prior to winning the election for County Executive, she served in the Pennsylvania House of Representatives after securing an overwhelming majority and winning the election for the 21st District seat in 2018.  In 2022, the legislature passed Sara’s Whole Home Repairs legislation which distributed $125M in critical funding to keep seniors, and those facing housing insecurity in their homes.

Sara is a lifelong resident of Allegheny County, currently residing in Upper Lawrenceville. She is a graduate of North Hills High School and graduated from the University of Pittsburgh’s College of Business Administration.
