Info | Trina Good serves on the Executive Board of the Northshore/Shoreline Health and Safety Network, a Legislature-commissioned board which focuses on issues such as youth violence, substance abuse and domestic violence. She has also been involved with the re-organizational efforts of the 45th District Democrats and is the King County Central Committee representative for the 45th.
Good's priorities include accessible and affordable health care, a common sense approach to the sustainable management of natural resources, and an education system which works for all ages--both basic education and job training. She adds that transportation will continue to be a problem of growth, regardless of whether the RTA (rapid transit) plan passes.
"We need a voice which holds the same moderate values and concerns as the members of this district," Good said. "I believe I am just such a person." Good supports public education as the highest priority investment. "As we see our technological advantages in the world diminishing, we see more and more students graduating from high school without fundamental skills. The educational system is the foundation of society, and to shortchange education at a time like this is the worst kind of political expediency."
Good believes children deserve a positive and safe environment in which to grow, and supports targeting youth and family issues by identifying risk factors, reconnecting parents and other community members to youth, and curbing problematic behavior through preventive programs.
"We must develop long-term comprehensive plans to reduce the rate of truancy, substance abuse, teen pregnancy, youth violence, domestic violence, and child abuse," Good said.
