I work to gain the trust of Cleveland residents through direct community engagement and storytelling. My goal is to amplify and celebrate the residents and stakeholders who contribute to the success of city neighborhoods. I’m hoping to erase the negative stigma that has been cast on some neighborhoods throughout the years.

Signal Cleveland spoke to a few residents across the city, and they shared their 311 experiences, their questions and their suggestions.

Young members of Elizabeth Baptist Church and members of Black Environmental Leaders unveiled a marker dedicated to John Jordan, a man who was lynched by a mob in Cuyahoga County in 1911.
