Dear Friend and Neighbor, I'm hoping you will sign this petition to nominate me to run in the upcoming Jamaica Plain Neighborhood Council election on June 24. Heidi and I have lived in JP for 27 years and can't imagine a better place to have raised Mikayla and Jonah, benefitting immeasurably from the wonderful green spaces, playgrounds, sports leagues, restaurants, and enduring friendships. I've spent my career in the non-profit and philanthropic sectors working on a range of issues including education, affordable housing, and youth development. I feel a particular responsibility to give back to the neighborhood that has offered so much to our family and want to ensure JP continues to develop and evolve in ways that are fair and equitable to all. Thank you in advance for signing this petition to get me onto the ballot! The next step after that will be coming out on June 24th for the actual election - more info to follow!

Jeff
