Housing Action Coalition✓ EndorsesAbout Catherine Stefani
As a former prosecutor, national gun violence prevention advocate and County Supervisor, Catherine Stefani has dedicated her career to making communities safer and more affordable.
Catherine Stefani believes a better California begins right here in our neighborhoods. She’s dedicated her career to making communities safer and making government work for all of us — as a county supervisor, a policy analyst, a national advocate for sensible gun laws and a champion for victims’ rights.
As a county supervisor and a mother of two, she’s worked to make schools better and communities safer. She’s worked tirelessly to improve community policing and the readiness of first responders. She understands the difficulty parents face raising a family in the Bay Area and has voted consistently to promote the creation of affordable housing. Based on her experience as a prosecutor, Catherine authored Proposition D to create a local advocacy office for vulnerable victims of domestic violence and other crimes.
