About Me

Alejandra Gomez is a passionate human rights activist dedicated to advocating for foster youth and Indigenous communities on both national and international levels. Recently she attended the White House policy youth summit in February 2024 advocating for policies addressing youth homelessness and championed Indigenous children's rights at the United Nations Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues in April 2024. As an Indigenous youth with lived experience, Alejandra understands the importance of intersectionality and advocating for change. Her advocacy extends beyond her college campus, where she actively engages in policy analysis to influence public policy on issues such as youth homelessness, the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA), foster care, and mental health at both state and national levels. Her focus is on harnessing Indigenous cultural strength, fostering community support, and advocating for comprehensive investment to drive positive change within the child welfare system.
