Core Commitments
Accessible Democracy
All of our city decision-making should be transparent, participatory, and accessible. Our city planning must prioritize stable, bottom-up growth.
People-First Spending
We must fiercely support the improvement of public services. We must fund libraries, schools, parks, housing, social programs, small business development, and transportation that work for us.
Economic
Justice
Richmond should be accessible and affordable to all who want to live here. Policies should work to ensure accessible housing and good union jobs for all.

About Kenya
I moved to Richmond after graduating from college and knew this would be my home. Today, I’m a single working mother who has supported two children through Richmond Public Schools. I was elected to serve on the school board in 2017.
Richmond is not just my home, it has made me who I want to be.
Here, my life has been transformed by residents, teachers, and workers who advocate to make our city stronger. I wouldn’t be happier anywhere else.
