Creating equitable, fair and just policies is only the first step in delivering responsive public service to Harris County residents.

Precinct One’s initiatives are the action of delivering those policies to residents to meet the goals and objectives of each policy. Reflective of our priorities, Precinct One’s initiatives respond to the needs of our community.

Our initiatives strive to incorporate equity, fairness and justice into the equation, including addressing community health by securing access to food, creating a county department to address economic inequity and ensuring fair, free, and safe elections.
