COMMUNITY EMPOWERMENT

I plan to be a resource of information, collaboration, and partnership for the community. I want to ensure that our district has the educational and empowerment tools to voice their wants, needs, and objections to the policies and practices that directly impact their lives. As assemblymember, I want to make sure that my constituents are active participants in the democratic process. 

 

• Create “Civics 101” learning opportunities to enrich the community’s knowledge of the political and government processes. 

• Create a participatory budget on the State level

• Host community events and regular forums where community members become partners in  the governing process.

• Create and invest in community building activities with tenant associations, block associations and merchant associations
