Early Life and Education

Jack Lally, an 18-year-old college student elected to the Brockton City Council at age 18, expressed his appreciation for voters taking a chance by electing him and plans on choosing morning classes next semester to accommodate his meetings in time with time for City Council meetings and saving money by staying on his parents’ health insurance instead of using the $10k stipend provided for council members by Brockton.

Lally has also established his own management company, Spectacle Management. Through this venture he promotes concerts, theatre performances and comedy at 13 venues throughout five New England states.

Lally Cardiopulmonary Rehabilitation and Healthy Lifestyle Center at Saint Joseph East.

His contributions have made an immeasurable difference in patients across Kentucky’s One Health system.
