Welcome Candace Cross as our newest Program Associate!
We forgot to announce this back in August, because it feels like Candace has been an official part of our team for so long, but we are very excited and proud to share that Candace has officially joined Praxis in the role of Program Associate!
Candace was a Helen Gurley-Brown Fellow recipient and held a year-long placement at Praxis, starting in August 2019. Candace supports our work around centering community in legislation and advocating for policy that aligns with community priorities, she has been an invaluable team member for our webinars and Learning Circles, and she also brings her talents to the communications team as our social media manager. We love Candace's tenacious attitude when it comes to fighting for justice and equity. You can catch Candace in action representing Praxis in our policy workgroups, through the policies and actions updates in our monthly and quarterly emails, and uplifting the incredible work of basebuilding organizations across the country and keeping us up-to-date with the most pertinent news through our social media channels.
