Kevin A. Wilson for a Stronger 4th Ward Voice

Hello 4th Ward Neighbors,

I am a proud Native Resident of the 4th Ward. I have pride in my place. I was born, raised, and worked in the 4th Ward. I graduated from Dwight Morrow High School in Englewood, New Jersey. I played football and was part of the team that won the 1979 Championship. I am a dedicated father of one daughter, Cortney and two young men, Kaelen and Kai. My fiancé, Monica Strickland is a lovely woman and supports me wholeheartedly.

After college, I worked with my father's construction company, "Wilson & Wilsons".  During our decades in business, we built many homes throughout the city of Englewood and Bergen County. We employed hundreds of our neighbors. Working in this field taught me hard work, the importance of entrepreneurship, and the value of homeownership in a community.

Later, I joined the Englewood Fire Department, where I served my community for 29 years until I retired in May 2020. Being a firefighter was one of my life's highlights as I selfishly dedicated my life to serving others. 

My Political life began when my stepfather, the late Jack Drakeford introduced me to caring Residents and Local Officials who were making a difference in our community. I wanted to be part of this as well. Therefore, I began the work as:

  • Founding President of Englewood's Chapter of the Jabari Society- part of an International organization that helps young Black men become firefighters
  • Co-founder of Urban League's program "From The Ground Up" where youth were employed to build our existing fire house, that bears my stepfather's name.
  • Counselor for Bergen County Juvenile Firesetter Program - The goal of the program is to reduce the overall problem of firesetting by working with juvenile firesetters to identify underlying issues and provide intervention to minimize firesetting behaviors.
  • Former VP of Relief Association - provided monetary support to fallen fire Fighter's widows
  • Served on Englewood Board of Adjustment in 2016
4th Ward Neighbors, elect me as your councilman, and I will work to make sure that the 4th Ward has an effective communicator that will speak directly on your behalf regarding numerous issues.
  • Future Development in the 4th Ward
  • Trash
  • Flooding
  • Safety
  • Programs for kids
  • Education, Health and Recreation for all ages
If elected, I plan to work hard to preserve our beautiful city bringing positive results to the Residents of the 4th Ward.

If you have any questions or concerns, I am happy to personally meet with you. Please send me an email - Kwilson4thward@gmail.com or stop by 328 W. Palisade Ave.
