A PERSONAL MESSAGE FROM MY HEART ❤️

For the past three days, I have been hospitalized, taking time to listen, reflect, meditate, and pay attention to what my mind, body, and spirit are telling me.

Today is especially bittersweet. Since becoming an elected official, I have never missed the first day of early voting. Being present, engaging with our community, and participating in the democratic process have always meant so much to me.

But today, I am reminded of something equally important: You cannot continue pouring into others while neglecting yourself.

Campaigning, serving, leading, and carrying the responsibilities that come with public service can sometimes become overwhelming. We often encourage others to take care of themselves while forgetting that we must do the same.

To everyone who has not yet made it to the polls, I encourage you to exercise your right to vote. Your voice matters, and your participation matters.

And to everyone working tirelessly on the campaign trail, please remember that your mental, emotional, and physical health matter, too.

If you don’t see me out on the campaign trail right now, please understand that I have made the decision to prioritize my health and well-being.

My absence from the campaign trail does not mean an absence of commitment.

My heart remains dedicated to public service, our children, our families, and the future of education in Salisbury.

I am still here. I am still committed. And I remain dedicated to serving on the Rowan- Salisbury School Board.

Sometimes strength is knowing when to keep pushing, and sometimes strength is knowing when to rest.

Today, I am choosing my health without abandoning my purpose.

Thank you for your prayers, understanding, and continued encouragement. ❤️

CAMPAIGN LAUNCH

I am proud to officially announce my campaign to be RE-ELECTED to the Rowan-Salisbury Board of Education.

Serving the scholars, families, educators, staff, and communities of Rowan-Salisbury Schools has been both an honor and a responsibility I do not take lightly.

I have seen firsthand the power of strong leadership, courageous decision-making, community partnerships, and an unwavering commitment to putting scholars first.

My service has never been about simply holding a seat. It has been about showing up, speaking up, doing the work, and delivering results.

As we look toward the future of Rowan-Salisbury Schools, Experience matters. Consistency matters. Accountability matters. And most importantly, every scholar matters.

I am seeking re-election because there is still important work ahead. I remain committed to supporting academic excellence, strengthening opportunities for our scholars, valuing and retaining exceptional educators and staff, engaging families and communities, and making decisions that move our district forward.

I believe leadership should be experienced, prepared, accessible, and focused on results; not for a select few, but for ALL scholars.

This campaign is about continuing the work we have started and building upon the progress we have made together.

RE-ELECT DrAlisha Byrd-Clark -Nov 3rd

I humbly ask for your support, your prayers, your voice, and your vote as we continue working together for the future of public education in Rowan-Salisbury.

I stand tall, beyond PROUD of me, with my crown secure atop my head. Running for office—or any pursuit that challenges and calls us to lead—demands immense courage, sacrifice, boldness, discipline, and time. Although I had envisioned a different result, I feel at peace, confident that I gave every ounce of those qualities to this journey.

For every vote, encouraging word, prayer, donation, smile, work behind the scene; from my heart to yours THANK YOU.

I'm just getting started and the best is still yet to come!

I am deeply honored and humbled to receive the endorsement of NC NOW PAC, an organization that has stood at the forefront of advocating for women’s rights and reproductive justice.

At a time when access to reproductive healthcare is under attack, this endorsement strengthens my resolve to fight even harder for policies that protect the rights and freedoms of women across North Carolina. I believe that every woman deserves access to comprehensive healthcare, including reproductive services, without fear of political interference or discrimination.

Thank you to NC NOW PAC for your trust and support. Together, we will continue to push for progress, equality, and the protection of women’s rights.
