On The Issues
As a local social worker and community organizer there are a lot of gaps - and opportunities - I see on a daily basis! Take a look at a few specific issues I hope to address on Erie County Council. But if you see something missing, let us know!
We want to bring ALL perspectives to the table.
Equity & Inclusion
Whether we're talking about religion, race, gender identity, ability/disability, sexual orientation, or socioeconomic status - EVERYONE deserves a fair shot at life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That includes equal access to family-sustaining jobs, access to resources and services, access to community and connection, and access to justice and fair treatment in all spaces. This is not a topic that exists in its own silo - this is a concept that is imbedded in every area of the work I do. Reach out if you have questions on how this applies to the issues you care about!
Environmental Protection & Development
Supporting responsible, environmental development and protection is critical at this point in our global struggle against climate change.
​
Moving away from the "same old" model of development and reliance on fossil fuels in incredibly important.
​
Protecting our natural green spaces in Erie County is even more important - not only for the environment but for our region's history, identity, and culture.
