Anthony understands residents feel watched, but not heard nor cared for by our police department. He knows residents found it uncomfortable and unsafe to interact with the police. His campaign will ensure residents have a direct opportunity to impact the root issues of crime, public safety, and police accountability. He plans to bring the community together by prioritizing the community when working with different stakeholders to develop strategies to implement healing spaces & restorative justice practices.
