Klamath Falls
Summary
I am a mental health advocate and civil rights activist looking to broaden my skillset as I further my education and experience in the field. As a member of a minority community I have a deep understanding of the underlying issues within said community, and offer unique experiences with rural marginalized populations that would bring value to other areas in need of individuals like myself. My experiences have been with diverse, underserved, disenfranchised, and marginalized individuals ranging from young to geriatric across homelessness, mental illness, substance abuse, and law enforcement involvement. Lastly, I offer a multi-cultural perspective and being bilingual to assist with individuals of varying ethnic backgrounds.
