Her greatest achievement includes being elected as the first--and youngest--African-American representative in the Binghamton City Council.

We hope that you enjoy this site and that you are inspired, like Lea to be the change we want to see in our communities. |
"I firmly believe that when people are engaged at the grassroots level, change is not only inevitable, but because they discover their own personal power, change then becomes a sustainable reality. Together, we can build strong communities and strong leaders- block by block, community by community."
