Riley says her mission “is to spare no effort to promote the evolving of the 7th ward, using the energetic and unflagging enthusiasm of the young and the wisdom of the experience, joining all independent voices of Chicago’s 7th ward with one vision to:
- Restore the neighborhoods of the 7th ward,

- Secure a task force committee from the 7th ward constituents to work with CAPS and implement public safety.

“Because I care, I’m devoted to reunite, revive and restore the 7th Ward from scarcity to prosperity.”
