Today we talk with Rachel Hernandez! Rachel is first-generation and raised in Stanislaus County. During junior college, she joined a political science club where she was inspired by the ways civic engagement and communication (or the lack of it) impacts communities. She went on to earn her Bachelors in Political Science, spending her last year at the State Capitol as a legislative intern. She then went on to earn her Masters in Public Administration which focused on Central Valley nonprofits and local government. During her academic years, she worked on federal, state and local campaigns to build grassroots power in POC communities, and in nonprofits serving a range of populations from survivors of domestic violence, federally qualified health centers, AANHPI communities, and others. In 2020, she ran for city council in Riverbank where she currently serves. We talked a lot about how important representation is, how to get involved in your local communities and her careers in the non-profit world and on the City Council of Riverbank.
