Meet the Candidates: Aimee Grace ANC 6B07

We have offered to post brief statements from all of the ANC candidates running for seats on Capitol Hill and the surrounding neighborhoods that we cover here on The Hill is Home.  These statements are not endorsements and have been posted exactly as submitted by the candidates. 

Aimee Grace ANC 6B07 PictureGreetings! My name is Aimee Grace, and I’m running for ANC 6B07 Commissioner. Thank you for this opportunity to share why I’d like to serve our neighborhood and represent you.

My background is that I’m a pediatrician and a health policy advisor in the U.S. Senate. My husband Joe and I have lived in Capitol Hill for over three years.  We are thankful to live in such a great neighborhood with a community that is caring, kind, and invested.

Joe and I love to serve and invest in our community. We both volunteer on the Leadership Community of the District Church, based in Hill East. Our engagement in our local neighborhood has spanned safety meetings, efforts to solicit community input on ideas to revamp the Potomac Avenue SE triangle parks, and community potlucks and events to foster positive relationships between homeowners and residents of public housing. I serve on the Steering Committee of DC Safety Net and have also been actively engaged in volunteering with the Hopkins Apartments through co-leading multiple events for youth and the community in partnership with the residents.

My goals for the 2017-2018 term include:

  • Improve community relations between residents of public housing, renters, and homeowners;
  • Co-lead the effort to revamp Potomac Avenue triangle parks with community input;
  • Increase employment opportunities for community members;
  • Improve neighborhood security; and
  • Promote community input and dialogue.

I am thankful to have the endorsement of Daniel Chao, our excellent current ANC 6B07 Commissioner.

I look forward to partnering with all of our neighbors and friends to continually work to improve our community. Please be in touch anytime. For more information, please see my website at http://www.AimeeGraceMD.com.

I would appreciate your support and vote as I run for ANC 6B07 Commissioner this November 8!
