Alexis Weaver

Alexis is a working mom with three children (ages 10, 7 and 2!) and is running to serve on the Tucker City Council in Tucker, Georgia. She is an anti-hunger advocate, nonprofit leader and urban planner with nearly 20 years of experience in economic and community development. As a senior manager with Atlanta’s food bank, Alexis works daily to help low-income Georgians achieve economic mobility utilizing the charitable food system. A life-long community volunteer, she is a board member of Tucker’s largest local social service nonprofit.

Alexis is running to ensure that everyone in her community has an opportunity to flourish and find success. She’s fighting for inclusion, seeking to pass a much-needed Non-Discrimination Ordinance to protect her LGBTQ neighbors, and pushing back against the current leadership’s efforts to criminalize homelessness. Tucker is a diverse city experiencing rapid growth, and Alexis is committed to transparency, equity, seeking creative solutions to complex problems, and amplifying unheard voices. She is passionate about connecting with and convening residents to hear their hopes and concerns, and responding with action.
