OUR CHILDREN DESERVE LEADERSHIP. JAMES SHEPPARD IS READY. James Sheppard believes that we need a Mayor who will listen to the public’s concerns first, then deliver results. That is the way James led as Police Chief and in the County Legislature and that is how he will serve as Mayor. James Sheppard is the only candidate with a plan to revitalize our neighborhoods and address our struggling schools.
Create Rochester Goes 2 College - An innovative program providing youth and family support, financial aid counseling, higher education networking and college recruitment to anyone interested in attending college or trade school. Place a Student & Family Support Center model in every rec center in the City of Rochester. Expand Teen Empowerment Program - This proven model of leadership and employment has made a difference in the SW Quadrant. It’s time we address our other neighborhoods. Greater Opportunity - As Mayor, James Sheppard will demand additional funding to expand universal pre-K and child care subsidies. He will advocate for more magnet and regional learning centers for our kids.
