Making Kinston Strong Again—One Person, One Project at a Time

Welcome to The Committee to Elect Quarla Blackwell

Hello Kinston:

Thank you for joining The Committee to Elect Quarla Blackwell. Your support is the heartbeat of this campaign—and together, we’re building a movement rooted in fairness, compassion, and real change.

My mission is clear: to serve the people of Kinston by addressing the issues that matter most. That means:

• 💼 Fair compensation for department heads to reduce the strain on the community

• 🧩 Autism awareness and support, ensuring families have access to resources and respect

• 🛠️ Transparent bidding on city projects so taxpayer dollars are spent wisely

• 🔁 Reentry programs that help formerly incarcerated individuals rebuild their lives

• ⛪ Funding churches and grassroots organizations—the true pillars of our neighborhoods

• 🏙️ Investing in neglected urban communities to restore pride, opportunity, and equity

• 🧠 Advocating for mental health services that are accessible, affordable, and community-based

• 👩‍⚕️ Fighting for better pay for essential workers—the backbone of our city’s resilience

“This campaign is about people—not politics. It’s time to uplift every corner of Kinston.”

Whether you’re here to volunteer, share your story, or simply stay informed, you’re part of a movement that puts people first. Let’s build a Kinston we can all be proud of—together.

With gratitude, Quarla Blackwell   Candidate for Kinston City Council 📍 quarlablackwellkinstoncitycouncil.info
