We had the honor to sit down with City Council Member Lindsey Shaw. On our podcast The Learning Project Network. To discuss our news series : Leading With A Purpose. 

City Council Member Lindsey Shaw:

I'm running for city council with a vision of hope for Spokane and a commitment to bringing about positive change. As a resident of Northeast Spokane, I've witnessed the unmet needs of our community, and I'm ready to step up as an advocate in city hall. I may not be a career politician, but I am a dedicated neighbor who believes in taking action.

Growing up in Northeast Spokane in a working-class family, I learned the values of hard work and community engagement from my single mother. When I began raising my own children in this neighborhood, I couldn't ignore the disparities that had left our area behind. Abandoned houses, unsafe parks, neglected schools, and unequal funding became apparent. So, I decided to take matters into my own hands.

I became actively involved in the Logan Neighborhood Council, organized clean-up initiatives, collaborated with local businesses and nonprofits to enhance our community, and even successfully advocated for improvements in our infrastructure. After nearly five years of chairing the neighborhood council, I realized the power of community engagement. Now, I'm running for city council because Northeast Spokane deserves a dedicated advocate who will fight for our representation and tirelessly work to improve our neighborhoods. Together, we can build a healthier, safer, and thriving community in Northeast Spokane.
