A Leader You Can Trust
Meet Wendy Braun
I’m a mom, community advocate/volunteer, local school employee and have a heart for all of you! I will serve diligently for what you want, from our Chiquita Ridge issue to making sure our RSM stays safe, secure and a solid community for all of us to live and grow. Our First Responders are my heroes!
My family and I moved from Los Angeles in 1987 to Mission Viejo and then to Rancho Santa Margarita in 2001. I believe South Orange County is the best home to raise a young family from birth until the golden years, and I’ve seen our city grow by leaps and bounds. That’s why I’ve always been active in our community since we arrived, including:
Supervising RSM K-5 students for 18 years to keep them safe and healthy.
California Early Language Development Tester for our young students whom English is not their native language.
Volunteered in 1st-5th grade classrooms as a tutor/mentor at Kinoshita Elementary in San Juan Capistrano.
Health Tech for the largest elementary school in Foothill Ranch for many years.
Volunteer with OC Council on Aging, and becoming their Ombudsman, advocating for elderly rights at nearly half of our skilled
nursing/assisted living homes.
Volunteer with YANA Cancer Support and make blankets for people battling cancer.
I attend a local church in RSM, the Spoken Word Church, volunteering with the congregation who are so loving they visit the elderly in our community and bring care baskets and food (great chicken soup) to the ill who so need to be cared about!

A Pressing Issue That CAN Be Solved
There have also been many accidents caused by minimal safety barriers that if installed, could protect passengers in disabled cars and prevent an avoidable death. Previous city councils have had the opportunity for several years to allocate funding to add simple deterrents and work responsibly toward addressing the issue, but they haven’t yet taken the steps.
My goal is to bring this issue to light and to take steps to repair and enhance key bridges and then engage our community to share in an outreach program for bridge safety awareness and suicide prevention.
In Memory of Stephen Beckman, who helped inspire me to advocate for bridge safety.
