The Mission

As a candidate for judge, I am committed to ensuring that everyone who appears before the court is treated fairly and respectfully. To achieve this goal, I have developed a plan that focuses on increasing sensitivity training and visibility in the community.

First, I will develop a mandatory in-person training for all court staff that focuses on the importance of treating everyone who appears before the court fairly and respectfully. This training will include information about recognizing and avoiding bias and discrimination, as well as recognizing and avoiding unconscious bias. Additionally, the training will include strategies for how to handle difficult situations and how to de-escalate conflicts. I will also incorporate a system of checks and balances to ensure that the court staff is following the training protocols.

Second, I will create a public outreach program that encourages community members to come to the court and observe proceedings. This program will also involve hosting community forums to discuss issues related to the court system and how it can better serve the community.

Additionally, I will develop a system for giving community members the opportunity to provide feedback about their experiences with the court system. I will also incorporate a system of accountability that helps to ensure that court staff are following the policies and procedures put in place to ensure fairness and equity.

Finally continue , I will work with local organizations to coordinate events and activities that promote the court system and its commitment to fairness and justice. I will also make sure to create an online presence for the court system to help increase public awareness and engage with the community. By implementing this plan, I am confident that the court system will be more responsive to the community and that everyone who appears before the court will be treated fairly and respectfully. I am excited to work together with the community to ensure that justice is served.
