For many years I have mentored Minneapolis youth, our young people are the hope of realizing my vision of Minneapolis being “The Shinning City On River”. It’s their futures at stake, it’s their hopes and dreams that can be pursued and fulfilled by supporting and working with my campaign for mayor to make a “Better and Brighter Minneapolis”. A Minneapolis for the 21st Century.
My commitment to the youth of Minneapolis will be out in the forefront of my campaign, I will continue mentoring Minneapolis youth by offering stipend internships to youth how want to learn government, civics, and the political process from the ground up. Learn more about the issues or the day, learn how to execute lit drops, how to door knock, and phone-bank. Most importantly give our youth the opportunity to be positive influence to serve and give back to their communities. –LAVERNE TURNER

Remembering Andre
Andre Conley was an 17 year old teen living in north Minneapolis in the same neighborhood as myself, I had known Andre since he was 13 years old and Andre played basketball on my community basketball team for a couple of years. Andre was just a really great kid.
As Andre got older he became less interested in playing basketball but I would see Andre around the neighborhood and would talk all the time. In 2020 Lacy Johnson, who was running for United States Congress for Minnesota’s 5th Congressional District decided to invest in the youth in his community and supported the L.C.T. Consulting LLC Youth Internship Initiative. Andre was the very first youth I approached with the opportunity and he enthusiastically recruited others so they wouldn’t miss out on the opportunity.
Andre was a leader among his peers, who encouraged his friends to become interns to learn about how government works, policy, civics, and earn a stipend to perform basic campaign duties like door-knocking and phone banking.
One day while working for MN 5th Congressional District for United States candidate Lacy Johnson, Andre was murdered. He was gunned down on the streets of north Minneapolis in broad light on his way to work in September of 2020.
Andre’s death was an extreme shock and deeply painful to the community, Lacy Johnson, and myself. To honor Andre’s memory I decided to rename the L.C.T. Consulting Youth Internship Initiative to “The Andre Conely Youth Internship”.
