Courtney F. Howard

Courtney is a native of Alleghany County and holds a BA in Psychology and also in Theatre from Emory & Henry College. She moved to Clifton Forge in 2017 to start a family with her husband Jeremy and they now have two young children. Courtney has been actively trying to better our area, volunteering as an election worker, running social media and planning events for the Alleghany Commission on Rights & Equality, heading the Clifton Forge Parks & Trails Committee, and she is currently working on the All-Abilities Park and Sensory Trail Projects.

Courtney is most concerned with making sure every citizen of Clifton Forge receives equitable treatment from our local government and wants to ensure that future policies take into account each and every person that will be affected. Her two largest focuses are accessibility and our youth, and she’s so excited to be given the chance to run for a seat on the Clifton Forge Town Council and possibly help move the town forward in a positive light.
