Carly Weisenberg (she/her)
Lead Health Care Organizer
Carly is rooted in her work as an organizer because she has seen how empathy fuels relationships and relationships spark action. She grew up on both coasts – Florida and California. As early as elementary school, she remembers her father wearing political t-shirts around the house and striking up curious conversations about candidates’ values.
Carly moved to Colorado in 2013, where she began her own journey and pursuit of belonging. With the fundamental belief that our systems and institutions should work for all of us, Carly eventually landed in graduate school for social work in 2017. It was then where she shadowed her first one-to-one conversation with a community member and the pieces of organizing started to fall into place. Since 2019, she has been organizing to build deep individual relationships across difference in pursuit of collective liberation. As the Lead Health Care Organizer, she envisions a movement of health care workers and patients, too powerful and unified to be stopped.
Carly is a queer, Jewish, woman who sees organizing as the recipe for creating spaces of true belonging for us all. If your text to her doesn’t get delivered, chances are she is standing waist-deep in a remote Colorado river fly fishing for trout.
