👋 Say hello to Jasmine - one of our newest Board of Director members!

Jasmine is currently a Program and Operations Officer at the Arlene and Michael Rosen Foundation. She is a first-generation Salvadoran American who grew up in the San Fernando Valley. With over 10 years of experience in direct services, she has made an impact in areas such as supportive housing, domestic violence, incarceration, immigration, substance abuse, and public and mental health.

🎤 “After years of working in permanent supportive housing in LA, it’s very refreshing to see creativity being blended with needed services and resources for people experiencing/exiting homelessness… Would Works successfully offers a practical need —employment entry—with the magic that art can offer—patience, curiosity, collaboration, and confidence building.”

Outside the work environment, Jasmine is a curious traveler, book lover, and she is constantly looking to cook new dishes.

Welcome Jasmine! Would Works is grateful for the new energy and skills you’ll be bringing!
