Allen for Supervisor

Sheila Allen will be an excellent Yolo County Supervisor. Sheila cares for and listens to her constituents and provides services that address their needs. When world language programs in the Davis School District were proposed to be cut Sheila listened to the parents and understood the importance of retaining those programs for students to succeed in today’s world, learn more about other cultures, and have opportunities for grassroots exchanges. Thankfully, Sheila voted with two other Davis School Board members to retain the programs.

Sheila has dedicated her public service career to helping meet the needs of people of all ages in Davis and in Yolo County. She founded and directed the Yolo Healthy Aging Alliance to promote the well-being of older adults and she continues to work for Yolo older adults by expanding the Yolo Adult Day Health Program, educating on emergency preparation, and supporting aging caregivers of persons with disabilities. 

Sheila served as the inaugural Yolo County First 5 Commissioner and chaired the City of Davis Human Relations Commission focused on public safety. As Yolo County Supervisor Provenza’s deputy she focused on planning and funding the much needed south Davis library, health and safety needs, funding for mental health, and housing for young families.

Sheila’s education and experience in public health and her dedication and strong success record in providing services for people of all ages to live healthfully makes her the best person for Yolo County’s next supervisor.
