Alameda County has a budget of 3.7 billion dollars, with over 850 million dollars allocated to support 260 community-based organizations (CBOs) that are vital in providing direct services to our community. However, there needs to be more transparency regarding the allocation and the quality of services offered. Without this transparency, many residents are unaware of where their tax dollars are going and whether these resources meet the community's needs.
With almost 4 billion dollars spent, Alameda County should experience a safer quality of life for its residents, city and county partnerships to remove unhoused individuals from the streets and find HUD approved housing and living conditions. It is shameful how many housing options are being touted that do not pass HUD Federal guidelines for a safe and clean environment.

Alameda children, no matter what city they are from, should feel safe, and able to participate in community activities without the threat of violence. This can be done by working with law enforcement and community programs to achieve their goals for community safety. We can support programs that overlap for safety because our children deserve, if possible, an absolutely safe and thriving environment.
Access: History has shown that “power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely” I want to restore the power balance between the people and their government, and increase the people’s access to resources, and the supervisors to make the decisions. We have to prepare for the world of 2050, and our grandchildren growing through 2100. We can no longer have the same leadership, doing the same unproven techniques, and envisioning a world from the 1900s. We need a new vision, new culture in Alameda County; one that supports families, small businesses, unions, and has measurable goals of success for the youth of our nation who reside in Alameda County.
Like Fannie Lou Hamer stated at the Mississippi Democratic Convention, “I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired.” No longer should our children grow up in the fear that we know currently exist in parts of Alameda County. I’m tired of it, and ready for a change. Are you?

Courtney Grows with the Community!
Courtney is the type of person that never meets a stranger. She has extensive relationships in Oakland, San Leandro, and the Bay Area Community due to her work in the school system with her two daughters, and supporting nonprofits through grants and other services. She is a one-of-a-kind candidate that is already doing the work she'll be doing once elected. Join us for the next house party or community event and come meet your new friend and D4 Supervisor, Courtney Jones.

01

Housing

Standing up for our unhoused neighbors using a very simple principle, “Treat others how you want to be treated.” This golden rule reflects the very simple question, “What would I need in that situation” and create policy accordingly
Supporting our officers who are extremely understaffed and underfunded. Crime is up in Alameda County and its putting us all at risk.
Funding community programs that support comprehensive health and rehabilitation for our unhoused and funding safety officers are not mutually exclusive. Together, Alameda County quality of life improves for all residents.

02

Public Safety

Partnerships with the State of California and local cities in Alameda County to support funding for housing and creative housing strategies that meet HUD Federal Compliance Guidelines.
Recognize that temporary housing solutions are not solutions that work for the unhoused, the county, or the community. It’s a band-aid to a broken leg, and right now our community needs medical surgery to walk upright again.
Because housing is a God-given human right, we must respect the honor and sovereignty of each other to ensure everyone has a safe domain to rest, refresh, and thrive each day.

03

Healthcare

Healthcare for too long has been viewed from a physical position and not holistic. I support healthcare that brings mental healing from various forms of trauma, help remove addiction from people’s lives, and works hand in hand with housing because the lack of housing can expedite mental health issues.
Healthcare officers and mobile health staff for Alameda County to visit people where they are and treat their illnesses when possible. For hundreds of years, people didn’t visit doctors, doctors visited people, and I want to bring the care part of our culture back supporting medical physicians and staff to make house visits and community visits again.

04

Community

Funding Community Organizations that can show in present time the positive impact they are making. No longer will Alameda County fund organizations simply because they have always been funded. Community review is necessary to ensure impact meets the cost and takes care of the need.
Supporting the cleanliness of Alameda County through Community Clean-Up partnerships
Creating an internship/job portal on my new District 4 website for young people 16-24 to easily search for paid internships, apprenticeships, training, jobs, and career-tracked programs. If we are not preparing our youth today for the next 10, 20, and 50 years, then we are not preparing them for anything.
