OPPORTUNITIES THAT KEEP OUR KIDS CONNECTED

As a mom, mentor, and advocate, I’ve seen what happens when we invest in our youth—and what happens when we don’t. Too many kids in Kissimmee are falling through the cracks due to lack of access, safe spaces, and meaningful programs. It’s time to build a city that surrounds our young people with support, direction, and hope.

​

WHAT WE CAN FIGHT FOR TOGETHER

Safe Spaces and Afterschool Programs
I will work to expand afterschool, weekend, and summer programs that give youth a place to belong, learn, and grow—especially in neighborhoods that need it most.

​

Mentorship and Leadership Opportunities
Every child deserves to be seen and supported. I will champion mentorship programs that connect our youth with trusted adults, role models, and leadership development opportunities that prepare them to lead in their schools and communities.

​

College and Career Readiness
I will support partnerships with local schools, colleges, and trade programs that offer real pathways to success. That means job shadowing, internships, financial literacy, and resume-building starting early—not just after graduation.

​

Youth Voice at the Table
Young people aren’t just our future—they’re part of our present. I will work to ensure youth are included in decision-making through advisory councils and civic engagement opportunities that give them a real voice in shaping the city they call home.

​

THIS IS HOW WE INVEST IN THE FUTURE

 

As your commissioner, I will fight for a city where kids don’t just survive—they thrive. I will vote for budgets and policies that protect, uplift, and prepare our youth for what’s next. Because when our kids are connected, our whole community is stronger.

​

We’re ALL Kissimmee. And that includes every young person who calls this city home.​
