I, Roshunda Harris-Allen, Ed.D, am excited to announce that I am running for Alderman at Large for the city of Byram. Byram, Mississippi has been my home for almost 20 years and I reside here with my husband and three of our four children. I earned a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education, a Master of Science in Early Childhood Education, and Specialist Certification in Infant and Toddler Development. In May 2015, I earned my Doctorate of Education in Early Childhood Education at Jackson State University. 

I am an advocate for children and students of all ages, and the Byram community. Finding opportunities to serve and enhance my community is a priority. I am an active member of the Byram Chamber of Commerce; the Cheer Coordinator and a Cheer Coach for the Byram Jr. Bulldogs; a mentor for the Byram-Terry Crown Club; a leader in hosting restorative justice peace circles at various schools and community organizations; and support my family as a “soccer, football, track, baseball, and cheer mom.

My goal is for us to work together to expand the quality of our community through education, preparation, advocacy, collaboration, and enhancement to inspire individuals, families, and businesses to build a better Byram. With your support, we can work together to address the concerns, the quality of community growth and expanding of great resources for the City of Byram.
