Long-time community organizer and life-long resident Norieliz DeJesus announced this week that she will be mounting a campaign for the District 3 City Council seat, which is currently occupied by incumbent Naomi Zabot.
It is one of several races that features some of the tried and true advocates and allies from local non-profits in the City – including La Colaborativa and GreenRoots, among others. However, for DeJesus, it was a feeling of being able to bring the voices she encounters in her grass-roots organizing to the inside of the Council.
Norieliz DeJesus, a longtime resident and organizer at La Colaborativa, has taken out papers to run for District 3 City Council.
