Doug Carr comes from a working-class background and continues to advocate for the working class to date, with his parents immigrating to the United States from Scotland. His father proudly served in the military for 21 years and retired from Travis Air Force Base. Doug has lived in Fairfield since he was two years old.

Doug is community driven with two decades of experience working in the mental health field as a Licensed Advanced Alcohol Drug Counselor (LAADC). During this time, Doug has worked tirelessly to ensure that no community member gets left behind in Solano County and Fairfield, in particular. Doug previously served as executive director of the non-profit Healthy Partnerships and currently serves as board treasurer for A.K. Bean, a non-profit drug and alcohol treatment program.

Doug has 20 years of experience in the construction and painting trades and is a former member of the International Union of Painters and Tapers (IUPAT) and the State Employees International Union (SEIU). Doug currently serves as a Solano County Parole Reentry Court Case Manager and works closely with local agencies to provide housing, drug, and mental health treatment to clients. Aiding in solutions for homelessness by addressing drug and mental health advocacy and nurturing small businesses are just some of Doug’s top priorities for the city.

Doug will continue to use his experience, work ethic, and love for the community to uplift the city of Fairfield as a member of the City Council.
