she/her
Alison joined the Coalition in 2006 and helped lead the organization’s transition from long-standing volunteer collaboration (begun in 1979) to incorporation as an independent 501c3 in 2017. She has learned from work in community, academic, and public sector roles, including with school-aged children and families experiencing homelessness in New York City; with young children with disabilities and their families in Seattle; and as a social epidemiologist at Public Health – Seattle & King County. Through thirty years of practice at the intersection of social work, public health, and community organizing, Alison has advocated for strong public policy solutions rooted in reality. Collaborative and creative problem solving, effective systems change, and actions to strengthen democracy inspire her. Alison is the proud daughter and granddaughter of immigrants and refugees
