Een stadsdeel met meer dan 166.000 inwoners. Een stadsdeel waar een tekort aan leraren is en leerlingen met leerachterstanden van school komen. Met vereende krachten hebben we hard gewerkt om dat te veranderen. <br><br>Nu woon ik in Terwolde en leer ik dagelijks over Nabuurschap en hoe je samen met je buren en wijk prettig kan wonen, werken, recre\u00ebren en bouwen. Als sociaal liberaal laten we daarin iedereen vrij zonder iemand te laten vallen. Ik stel me<br>verkiesbaar voor D66 Voorst omdat ik graag samen met anderen verantwoordelijkheid neem voor de verbinding en ontwikkeling van onze gemeente op deze prachtige plek in<br>de Stedendriehoek.<br><br>Samen laten zien dat het w\u00e9l kan.\t<\/p>\t<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\t  <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n  <\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1826,"featured_media":1012,"menu_order":0,"template":"","search-tags":[],"labels":[],"division-tags":[28],"class_list":["post-1009","people-type","type-people-type","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","division-tags-fractie"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>D66 Voorst &#8212;
