I sat down with Tanisha Arena and spoke about her journey to making social justice her full-time job.
"I left the private sector for nonprofit to make a difference in the work I do, from being an author, a mentor for LGBTQ youth, a youth worker, domestic violence advocate and now Executive Director of Arise For Social Justice, my heart is in helping people identify and overcome barriers, figure out their best selves and then helping them get there. I am a part of the community I serve, and I bring my whole self to this work, each layer of my identity contributing to cultivating relationships and building bridges in the community. I believe in connections, in the power of community and in speaking your truth. Authenticity will never go out of style."
