Elisabeth Grider

"Hi! I'm Elisabeth Grinder (she/her)--I'm a 35-year-old Idaho native, and Master of Social Work student at Grand Valley State University. I’m passionate about social justice, and committed to using my privilege and access to advocate for the major removal of systemic barriers. I believe in meeting people wherever they are in life. I’m especially drawn to work that addresses systemic barriers, and recognizes the importance of intersectionality in shaping people’s lived experiences. With a strong interest in housing justice and policy change, I hope to support efforts that create lasting and inclusive solutions--which is why I am so excited for this internship at MCAH. This opportunity aligns closely with my values and long-term goals in social work, and I look forward to making a meaningful impact in my community."
