Favorite quote or scripture related to justice:

Philippians 4:8

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

What does justice mean to you?

Respect and equity with all human beings, animals and the earth.

What is the most powerful thing you have been a part of at ACT?

Being part of parent leaders and Parents with Power to advocate loudly and state-wide for justice in schools that represent low-income communities as well as for mental health services, equitable distribution of funds and strong and positive relationships between parents and Teachers and Board of Education and Sacramento School District.


Favorite thing about Sacramento:

Outdoor  activities, hiking by the river, multicultural events, food and friendly community.


Who is your justice superhero?

Jesus
