I will work with the business community to continue to modernize and support growth as well as find ways to incentivize organizations to hire locally. I will broker public/private partnerships to increase youth summer employment and job training opportunities.

Denver public safety must be improved as a whole. I plan to focus  in the areas of police response times by increasing the number of officers, investing in new communications technologies and support staff. I will also increase investment in programs that engage individuals experiencing distress.

I will implement a housing first approach to homelessness that works with individuals in a case management format that ends in housing stability and eventually homeownership. Denver is at an affordable housing crossroads and the future direction we choose will determine whether or not our city will be for some or all.
