Elizabeth Casillas

I am Elizabeth Casillas originally from El Paso Texas. I currently work for RISE Colorado, and I am the Latinx Community Organizer. I engage, empower, and educate parents and community leaders to realize their power in the education system. Through that they are able to manifest change and create educational equity. I value education, and as a proud parent of 4, I have had my fair share of ups and downs in the school system when it comes to my own children's education. Outside of work I am passionate about my faith, and raising my children, and finding balance juggling a career, husband, and children, all moving in a harmonious, but steady direction that after so many years hasn’t been an easy task!
