My name is Kenneth E. Reeves (Ken). I am currently serving a term as a member of the Cambridge City Council, and I have served three terms as Mayor of the City of Cambridge and previously served consecutive terms as Mayor in 1992-1993 and 1994-1995, and during the last 2006-2007. During that time in the Mayor’s Office I have become both the first African American and the first openly gay person to hold the office in Cambridge, and the first openly gay African American Mayor in the nation.

I have been working on issues surrounding education in Cambridge. I have struggled with parents around good after-school programs for parents and the youth of Cambridge, closing the minority achievement gap, teaching parents to teach good studying and learning habits early on in life and a host of other issues. I am also focused on human rights issues in the GLBT community and making Cambridge aware of the human rights violations that occur abroad in Jamaica. If you are interested in the things that I have accomplished and some of my future plans for office during the next two years, please continue to check out the rest of the website.

The volunteer of the week is Siham Elazri, an intern in the campaign office. Siham Elazri is a student at Cambridge Rindge & Latin. She has recruited many of her peers to work on the campaign and specifically around the issue of the Office of College Success. She has dedicated her entire summer to the campaign. Thank you very much for your hard work.

Sincerely, Ken.
