EIC Celebrates Women's History Month (7/7, Part 7): Today, we are highlighting Elaine Abelaye-Mateo, EIC's Principal Consultant, and the SHEroes in her life. Thank you to Elaine and all the SHEroes in her life for their activism, leadership, fire, and compassion! Kim Williams: "Kim is the most consistent and most genuine of sheroes. She is a leader that is easy to follow because of her collaborative leadership style and her clear motivation to fight for communities who have historically been disenfranchised. She leads with power, clarity, and grace and has won over many people with opposing views and achieved success in countless campaigns because of her bold yet honest demands for justice. The Sacramento community is a better place because of Kim’s sheroism."

Thank you to Elaine and all the SHEroes in her life for their activism, leadership, fire, and compassion! May O. Lee: "May is the exemplar of a shero. She leads with a deep level of authenticity, sense of self, and clarity of values. She leads through a vision of what could be and inspires followership because of her g...enuineness, kindness, and her love of people. May’s leadership is not fear-based, rooted in vanity, or ego-centered. Rather, May’s sheroism is rooted in love and a stalwart commitment to liberation for everyone, especially marginalized communities. May recognizes the imperative of coalitions and leadership pipelines and works intersectionally and multi-generationally her sheroism is unmatched. May was and is at the center of creating some of the most important progressive organizations in the Sacramento region and we are all indebted to her as a trailblazer who has created pathways for so many others to step into leadership and carry out her vision of social justice."

Unapologetically authentic she harnesses her fierceness by leading many fights for social justice and racial equity. She is unafraid of speaking truth to power and calls out injustices and those who perpetuate systems of inequity. Her persistence is matched by her compassion and the care she takes for those who build with her. Megan is a true shero."

She effortlessly analyzes complex issues and challenges, breaks them down to create tangible and workable solutions, and is driven by a passion to create health and racial equity in systems historically plagued by White Supremacy. Talia’s sheroism is one to watch in years to come!"

CaseyAnn’s sheroism is evidenced by the clarity with which she organizes her time and resources to win for her people."
