As an unshakeable community activist, Vonetta has been in the forefront of the South Jersey Progressive movement for years. Her career has been centered on tackling housing issues and removing barriers to homeownership for economically disadvantaged families. With a commissioned Princeton University study, she played a key consulting role in securing an increase in NJHMFA down payment assistance. This election, Hawkins will once again push for change as she runs alongside Brian K. Everett in LD-4, uniting under the shared slogan of Steven Fulop’s gubernatorial campaign to amplify their progressive vision.
