Proven Leader

DeDreana has dedicated her life to demanding power for those who are most impacted by social, economic, and environmental injustices.

DeDreana has a long and broad base of experience in grassroots community-led organizing. She knows the critical immediate needs of those living in material poverty and has effectively amplified the voices of the community when immediate needs are not met or heard. She also knows that continuing to spend time and resources on bandaid work will never address the root causes of poverty and racism. She consistently raises the need for the most affected to be at the table working on solutions.
