Silvia Lopez

I am the new Community Resource Mobilization Fellow. My vital role will be in supporting the design, coordination, and implementation of community-based programming, with a specific focus on the Madrona Fellowship for Food System Leaders. Before coming to Ecotrust, I was earning my master’s degree in clinical mental health because I have always felt called, as an Afro-Salish and Latina woman, to help marginalized communities heal from historical, intergenerational, intersectional, and personal traumas. I am someone who is deeply dedicated to the healing of self and my people.
