“I have had the privilege of working closely with Ross Nusser, a dedicated Board member of Successful Living in Iowa City.

Ross has been an unwavering advocate for affordable housing and is deeply committed to improving mental healthcare in our community. Since Ross joined our Board, our Housing program has expanded significantly, growing from just a few houses to 14 today, providing a safe and supportive living environment for 56

adults in our community.

​

His strong dedication to supporting individuals with disabilities, along with his passionate advocacy for mental health, makes him an invaluable asset to Iowa City.

​

As affordable housing and mental health services continue to be critical issues in our city, Ross Nusser’s leadership on the city council would ensure that the voices of marginalized groups are heard and represented with both compassion and unwavering commitment.”

Dr. Joseph Massa

Executive Director-Successful Living

“Ross’s understanding of the vital need for comprehensive mental health and substance use services, combined with his strategic vision and compassionate approach, has been instrumental in guiding our non-profit agency through both challenging and transformative times.

​

Ross consistently demonstrates a genuine passion for improving the lives of those we serve and has proven to be a dedicated advocate for the needs of our community.”

“As a 3rd Generation Business owner and a lifelong 7th Generation Iowa Citian, I know that Ross Nusser will bring a voice to the Council that has been missing and will bring a generational perspective that is needed. I fully support Ross Nusser for City Council”.

Owner, John's Grocery 

As a lifetime resident of Iowa City, I have seen and interacted with many local people in leadership positions. Some of them were really good at pointing out the myriad of problems our community faced. However, most were less than stellar at coming up with solutions to those problems, putting those solutions into an action plan, and making sure that plan was implemented with fidelity. I believe that when Ross Nusser becomes our District C representative he will demonstrate that he is a true change agent who will selflessly serve his constituents while addressing the issues our community faces. Ross has served on the board of Successful Living for thirteen years and over that time has helped provide hundreds of people receive the mental health and housing support they so desperately needed.

​

As the President of the Community and Family Resources Substance Abuse Committee he has helped countless people gain  access to substance abuse services that have been inadequate for far too long. As a member of the Johnson County Housing and Fellowship Board he has helped craft and implement plans to address the issue of low cost housing in our community. There are other philanthropic endeavors that Ross has partaken in and knowing him as I do, I can guarantee that his spirit of volunteerism will continue to be a large part of his life. As a successful realtor, Ross has of course helped many people find their dream homes. He has also helped businesses find their place in our community, which subsequently has resulted in the creation of good paying jobs for many of our area residents.

 

Clearly Ross is a visionary, and his visions are more than mere words on paper. His track record of being able to work with a truly diverse group of people and his ability to see things through to the end make him an obvious choice for the open District C council position.

 

Please join me in support of Ross Nusser in the upcoming primary and election.
