Thank you, Gov. Spanberger, LtG. Hashmi, and AG Jones. This is what an inclusive cabinet looks like. Leadership isn’t about quotas; it’s about intention & surrounding ourselves with people who reflect our communities. When everyone has a seat at the table, decisions are stronger and outcomes better.

PEFECTION IS A MIRAGE
Chasing perfection can lead to frustration, because perfection doesn’t actually exist in reality. What matters more is progress, authenticity, and continual improvement. 🌟💫🎯🌈💥

This weekend, the Board joined neighbors to celebrate Green Valley Day, honoring one of Arlington’s oldest communities. Chair Takis Karantonis read a proclamation recognizing 181 years of history, resilience, and unity as residents gathered for food, music, and community.
