Hello!
I'm Chelsea Rae,
Your Neighbor!
I’m also running to be Pittsburgh District’s representative and advocate at Kingston City Hall in the fall.
I am a Birth and Postpartum Doula, Childbirth Educator, maternal and family advocate, business owner, and mother of two living in the Greenwood Park neighbourhood.
Building Our Community Together
Our Pittsburgh District
Pittsburgh District is one of the most unique and diverse areas in Kingston. From established rural communities to growing suburban neighbourhoods like Greenwood Park, our district is home to some of the most beautiful green spaces, waterfront areas, parks, and natural landscapes in the city.
Pittsburgh already offers many of the qualities that make a community sustainable and family-friendly: access to nature, growing neighbourhoods, community connection, and space to grow.
But there is also much room to improve. Together, we would work toward building neighborhoods that are more connected, more accessible, more environmentally resilient, and much more responsive to the needs of the people who call it home.
What goes into building Resilient Communities?
Intentional Neighbourhoods
Focusing on walkable, accessible, and self-contained neighbourhoods where people can access schools, parks, shopping, recreation, and essential services close to their home.
Rural & Natural Spaces
Ensuring that these spaces are not only about preservation. These natural areas support both quality of life and maintain Kingston’s long-term ecological, social, and regional resilience.
Engaged & Connected Communities
Creating real opportunities for people who care deeply about their community to contribute their voices, skills, and ideas.
Strong communities are built when people are actively involved in shaping them.
Let’s Connect!
The easiest way to connect will be if I catch you at your door when I’m out knocking! ;)
I know door-to-door visits aren’t everyone’s favourite (I get it, and I relate!), so please don’t feel any pressure.
That said, it still remains one of the best ways for me to actually hear directly from you! It takes the responsibility off you to come to me, and puts it on me to show up, listen, and learn.
If you’d prefer to connect another way, I’d welcome that too. Please feel free to reach out to me!
