I was introduced to this episode's guest through another non-profit we have yet to profile, however, the praise was effusive for the work they're doing and the story of how they came to be is just as compelling. It shows the incredible commitment, passion and performance of the organization's leadership. Tiffany Loeffler is Founder and Executive Director of The Alliance. Not only will you be amazed at how the organization developed but of no less significance is how it serves both our community's and its' membership constituents.

Dr. Gina Warren, along with a committed team of volunteers and staff have embarked on a journey to change their childhood community with an innovative approach through education. Working to break the intergenerational trauma that has left families in poverty, homeless, incarcerated and under-educated, Neighborhood Wellness is breaking that cycle of trauma with neighborhood Navigators, many with 20,30, even 40 years of familiarity in the Del Paso Heights community. Working to develop and prepare high school students for college, vocational schooling or work, the education and awareness of opportunity and process is oriented from the inside out and bottom up. Families learn from each other how to best change for the better and begin to accept a life of experiences once thought unobtainable. Programs like "Sister to Sister" and "SHE Program" have allowed young women to be mentored and learn a different way of life. Creating personal worth and value is at the core of the educational process that is causing a cultural shift in the community.
