Katrina Diego
@katrinadiego
I support families with child safety, stabilization, and community resources.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I'm supporting low-income families at Options Counseling and Family Services by connecting them with reliable community resources, parenting education, and social supports that help prevent child welfare involvement.
I've represented Options Counseling & Family Services in Clatsop Partnership Meetings, educating community partners about hands-on, in-home demonstrations and teachings that promote child safety.
Through early childhood development projects, I created observation-based reports, collaborated with an Early Childhood Advocacy Group, and developed a leadership assessment plan intended to increase family engagement by 20%.
I'm also active in JEDI and BIPOC affinity-group work, advocating for mental health services, cultural humility, equitable policies, and conversations about systemic barriers.
