What else would you like voters to know about you, including your legislative priorities?
Allison Pratt believes that experience is the wisdom we have to share with our children and grandchildren. It’s not to tell them what to do it’s to share with them our experiences so that they can best decide what they want to do. Because your voice is your power, Allison Pratt is here to protect that! As a youth advocate, I act in the best interests of the youth I’m working with. The overall goal and purpose of a youth advocate is to ensure that youth maintain their human rights. This means taking the initiative to support bills and legislation aiding in building better economic development in all areas of South Los Angeles. Allison listens with the intent to understand how policies cripple residents in South Los Angeles and how that has heightened a sense of fear among parents with children in public schools. This is why Allison takes special interest in areas of education, healthcare, housing, religion, employment, strengthening family- relationships, and improving DCFS engagement. Allison believes in Partnership and connecting resources to better serve the people because it takes a village. Current elected officials are exhausting resources that could be better distributed to resolve issues current residents are facing. She aims to bring back common courtesy to South Central Los Angeles as she feels that will tackle the aggressive street behavior between residents as we all heal from the pandemic.
