Safety: Not only safety from crime, but safety for families, children and individuals in their homes. Everyday safety; safe crossings for pedestrians, cyclist and drivers. Safety from environmental hazards, safety to imagine, and to live a good life.


Health: We can and must create and sustain an environment with good access to medical services for all. We must promote quality health care, proper nutrition, and reliable health information, so that residents can make healthy choices and - keep themselves healthy.


Achievement:
Everyone has the temperament to achieve, whether it be in academics, the arts, or in the professions.Whether we seek opportunities for spiritual fulfillment or athletic competition, support for a diversity of options is a sign of a vital community.


Responsibility: There is no greater duty than our responsibility for ourselves and for one another. Nothing makes a community more attractive than the feeling that neighbors are looking out for one another. Everyone does better when a community shares this sense of responsibility. But along with responsibility must come access to the tools to act to improve conditions in the community. I promise to hear voices of the residents of Ward 4 and to be their voice on the Council.


Enterprise:
We must to expand opportunities that are sustainable and which contribute to the long term development of Ward 4’s neighborhoods and residents. With energy and wisdom that I’ve seen throughout the Ward, I know we can expand opportunity and build a prosperous future. While upholding our respect for culture, diversity, and history; we can make Ward 4 a special place, a dynamic place, a star in the Washington region.

These five principles which guide my approach to issues spell out the acronym: S.H.A.R.E.
