Mr. Stewart believes that La Grange Park is a great place to raise a family and is committed to fostering a sense of community for our residents. In October 2020, Jermaine organized a virtual Town Hall on Tackling Systemic Racism. The event included a panel discussion with local residents and community leaders and was centered on raising awareness of inequities for underrepresented residents.
