About Ward 6 Councilmember Talisha Searcy

Originally from Atlanta, Georgia, Talisha Searcy moved to Takoma Park in 2013. Talisha is passionate about civic engagement. She served as the President of the New Hampshire Gardens Community Association from 2015 to 2017. While in this role, Talisha secured grant funding for community engagement activities including block parties and commissioned a neighborhood entrance sign. “As the former President of the New Hampshire Gardens Community Association, I learned that it takes residents and city staff working together to get things done. I look forward to listening and learning from all Takoma Park residents about what you would like to see in our community”.
