LARESHA’S PRIORITIES FOR YPSI

I am thrilled to introduce myself. My name is LaResha Thornton .

I’m running as your Democratic representative for Ypsilanti Township Trustee.

I'm a mother of three amazing daughters, a graduate of the University of North Alabama with a degree in Criminal Justice and a minor in Marketing, and a woman who has lived through a nightmare most parents can only imagine.

My journey began with the hope of a better life for my daughters, and a dream that was shattered by the reality of a broken system that failed to protect me and my children.

My story is one of a mother facing unimaginable abuse, neglect, and a lack of support. A story that needs to be told. A story that needs to be heard. A story that needs to be changed for others.

This is not just a political campaign for me; it's a personal mission. It's about giving a voice to the voiceless, advocating for families who have been let down by the very system designed to help them, and fighting for the resources that are desperately needed to break the cycle of violence and despair.
