Young Professionals Council

The ALDEA Young Professionals Council (YPC) was formed in October 2020 with the purpose of supporting ALDEA’s mission through fundraising and awareness-building initiatives that strengthen and diversify our outreach networks. Located throughout the U.S. and in Guatemala, YPC members bring a variety of experiences and interests to their volunteer roles with ALDEA; for example, they include public health professionals, Adoptees with Guatemalan Roots, MBA holders, and tech entrepreneurs. Current/founding ALDEA YPC members are Rebecca Contreras, Brandon Cox, Kendal Miller, Janna Narke, Kira Noodleman, Jillian Renslow, Fabiola Secaira, and Lilyanna Thompson.
