Karen believes every person deserves the opportunity to live with safety, stability, and dignity.

Tulsa’s response to housing instability and homelessness must be practical, coordinated, and rooted in solutions that help people move forward. That means expanding access to housing, connecting individuals and families with the services they need, supporting effective outreach, and investing in programs that lead to lasting stability.

Karen supports compassionate solutions backed by clear goals, responsible use of public funds, and measurable results. She believes the strongest approach is one that treats people with dignity, addresses the reasons they became unhoused, and builds a healthier, more stable community for everyone.
