“I've known Jenn for well over a decade now. Jenn is a super thoughtful leader in the community. She continues to bring a level of knowledge and inspiration to our community conversation / vision that is contagious.

I wholeheartedly support her candidacy for City Council.”

“Jenn Truman is exactly who we need representing us in District D of the Raleigh City Council.

As a professional in civil engineering and architecture, she has the knowledge and expertise necessary to continue to move Raleigh forward and to represent us well on the City Council. She is also an experienced advocate for sustainable growth, transit and building walkable, healthy communities. It’s a real pleasure to be supporting Jenn Truman for District D of the Raleigh City Council.”

“Jennifer Truman is an architectural designer and self-described optimist, and her contributions to the city are considerable. An active member of the Southwest CAC before the groups were disbanded, Truman understands that, though imperfect, one of the strengths of the CACs was facilitating community engagement (though she doesn’t support reinstating them). Truman contributed to the Dix Park master planning process, was a member of the community leader group for the Dix Edge study, and has served on the Raleigh Transit Authority for a year and a half. A mother of young children, Truman uses her bike and the public transit system to get around the district. She’s also a proponent and activist in the realm of urban agriculture.”

“Jenn is the best!

We are super lucky to have her in this community. She's always been supportive of A Place at the Table, even before we had a space. She's a regular customer and is often here loving on all the folks coming through the cafe.

I can’t wait to see how she continues to change our city!

“Jennifer has always been a leader who engages citizens, ensures voices are heard and looks at what is best for the community. Her voice has been strong on housing affordability, transit investment, and important projects like downtown South and Dix Park that will build a better Raleigh. “

Jenn's professional background as an architect gives her great insight into the challenges today's zoning policies and procedures face when looking to address affordable housing issues.

Jenn is passionate about engaging with the community directly where she's attended plenty of in-person community meetings, and even helped arrange community gatherings online to be more inclusive of those who don't have the time to attend in person meetings.

I'm lucky to have a friend like Jenn, and Raleigh would be very lucky to have her as our District D representative.”
