|- All politics is local. With the national political climate and the current attack on women, people of color and working families we need local policies, practices and procedures that are protective and take care of home. Working families want what everyone wants: a city that makes it easier to raise kids, build a business, retire comfortably and stay rooted in the place they call home. That means investing in the health of our neighborhoods and closing gaps that have been ignored for too long.
- Economic Development Needs Equity Driven Growth Greensboro is growing and our future is shaped by a diverse population. Research shows diverse, equitable regions and businesses perform better, thereby affirming that Equity Benefits Everyone. Our city must be equity driven and ensure everyone, especially marginalized groups, can participate in the economy and prosper.
- Working Toward Shared Understanding Our platform is informed by recommendations of state and local elected officials, city and county administrative leaders, community leaders and neighbors. Collaboration and consistent communication across systems is necessary to be effective. We serve the same populations, we should also be sharing data, and strategies. Everyone is needed. Equity woven throughout our plans and strategy. Evidence and expertise is mandatory to move forward. Ease to do business, engage and participate civically.
Equity Driven Economic Development
When I’m at the doors, many neighbors raise concerns about reproductive justice. For me, it’s localizing the issue, it’s tied to how we care for children, support working families, and make sure every person has the resources to thrive. My own journey from daycare worker to daycare parent to educator to business owner has taught me that care is inseparable from stability and economic growth.
