From Day One, I have been fighting for you.

  • ​For a science-based response to the pandemic which prioritizes health and human life.
  • For a strong mental health system to meet our residents' needs.
  • For equity in our public schools.
  • For a coordinated business plan to meet our region's labor needs and to ensure residents have access to good jobs that pay family-sustaining wages.
  • For better funded parks and more green spaces.
  • For LGBTQ rights.
  • And for transparency in government -- it is my responsibility to bring County Government to you, as I have been doing throughout the pandemic.

Commissioner Altman Advocates Every Day for the
Economic Empowerment & Health of Families

As a mother, CMS parent, and County Commissioner, I know that families are priority number one, and I will fight for yours.

A Professional Career Built on Public Service
Commissioner Altman worked as a public-interest attorney for over 17 years, including serving as an Assistant Attorney General for the State of Georgia, a guardian ad litem for seniors in Mecklenburg County, and a staff attorney at Charlotte's Council for Children's Rights.

Her efforts have helped:
  • victims of discrimination in rental properties
  • homeowners who were price-gouged after a natural disaster
  • 18,000 victims of mail fraud, securing a $21 million judgment
  • at-risk children, seniors, and adults with disabilities
