MEET LAUREN

Rooted in the heart of Wisconsin, Lauren is a proud Badger with a lifelong love for the outdoors and a deep commitment to community care. As an avid fisher and mother of two, she brings the same patience and dedication to her work as she does to her family and passions.

​

Lauren holds a Bachelor’s degree in Sociology from Grand Canyon University, along with a minor in Criminal Justice from UW–Whitewater. Since 2018, she has served as a Case Manager, walking alongside individuals impacted by violence and trauma. In her current role as an Aftercare and Recovery Case Manager, she provides support, advocacy, and guidance to survivors as they navigate the complex path toward healing.

​

Her commitment to this work is deeply personal. After losing a loved one to gun violence, Lauren’s passion to show up, give back, and create safe spaces where people feel seen, heard, and supported continues to drive her efforts every day.

​

She believes that healing starts with connection and that everyone deserves a chance to rebuild. Lauren strives to be a steady presence for those facing some of life’s hardest moments—someone who listens without judgment and shows up with empathy every step of the way.
