Every resident deserves to feel safe in their home, on their street, and in our public spaces. I have worked directly with public safety officers and community groups to address homelessness, giving me an intimate understanding of the issue and the solutions that work. I will champion resources for our police and fire departments to improve staffing, equipment, and training while expanding community policing and outreach programs to build trust. Public safety also means prevention, which is why I will tackle the homelessness crisis with compassionate, effective strategies that keep our neighborhoods safe and provide much needed resources.
