Shanel's Vision for District 21
Public Safety
We can build safer, stronger communities through smart investments.
Affordable Housing
We need a fair and accessible housing system for Queens families.
Economic Development
We have to focus on empowering more workers to build a brighter future for themselves and their families.
Education and Schools
Our schools are the center of our children's lives, and as such should be our central focus.
Transportation
It’s past time we had reliable, affordable, and safe transportation in East Elmhurst and Corona.
Backed by Leaders. Chosen by Community.
Shanel Thomas Henry is earning the trust of those who know our neighborhoods best—community groups, organizers, and elected leaders who are fighting for real change.
