Summary
My professional experience includes providing advocacy services to unhoused people in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. I helped to support day-to-day program operations in a center for unhoused women, transgender, and non-binary people. I met the diverse needs of participants and assisted in the facilitation of program outreach. Relationship building is an essential pillar of the work I do.
