Cicely Sharp is a community-minded advocate with a background as a paralegal and experience contracting as a federal and nonprofit grant reviewer. Her work is rooted in social justice, with a focus on equitable budgeting, intergenerational connection, and expanding opportunities for both youth and older adults. She has been active in the Moral Budget Coalition and local justice efforts, where she uplifts community voices and pushes for transparent, people-centered public safety solutions.
Over the next six months with the Change Collective, Cicely plans to develop an interactive project that reimagines public safety through collaborative dialogue between youth, elders, and community leaders. Her goal is to create a model that highlights lived experience, expands access to supportive resources, and strengthens community trust across generations.
