With sons in Helena’s public schools, Ed has a personal investment in making sure our schools are safe and provide a high-quality education to all students.

A long-time public servant, Ed understands the need for good government to carry out the people’s work and the responsibility of public employees to put tax dollars to efficient and effective use for all Montanans.

Ed and Autumn Coleman raise fifth generation Montanans, Ed Jr. and Graham, surrounded by friends and family in Helena.  Ed and Autumn decided to bring up their family in HD 79 a decade ago because of the district’s affordable housing, proximity to public lands and trail system, quality public schools, socioeconomic diversity, and safe and friendly neighborhood.
