Selinda Guerrero (she/her)

Selinda Guerrero is the Network Engagement Co-Manager at Forward Together. As a grassroots human rights activist and organizer, Selinda belives her main work is to “give voice to the voiceless”. She is the National Action Coordinator for Save the Kids, a national all-volunteer organization, building a movement to end the school-to-prison pipeline. She leads the New Mexico chapter Millions for Prisoners, a national movement to abolish the loophole in the 13th amendment that allows for the continuation of slavery through the criminal justice system. As an organizer for Justice for Jaquise Lewis (“Albuquerque’s Trayvon Martin”), she is continuing our fight for justice. All of her work is intersectional with focus on issues concerning police violence, injustices within the Prison Industrial Complex while addressing underlying issues of generational poverty, access to housing, education, employment, and healthcare. She is a single mother of 6 with deep roots in New Mexico. She became active and motivated to work for change by building networks of community alliances over the last 24 years. She is always in the community and when not intentionally organizing she can be found at the dominoes table and spending time laughing with her children.
