AMPLIFY GA COLLABORATIVE - Key Persons

Allison is an Oklahoma native who has spent the last eight years working in the South. Her commitment to reproductive justice was shaped by her upbringing in a family of strong Latina feminists and the desire to join a movement that represents the intersectionality of our lives. Currently, she is the director of AMPLIFY Georgia, working to protect and expand access to abortion care in Georgia through collaborative campaigns and sits on the Board of Access Reproductive Care-Southeast. Previously, she worked internationally to promote sexual reproductive health and rights and expand access to safe abortion care, served on the board of the Carolina Abortion Fund, and volunteered as a domestic violence advocate.

Crystal Monds is a BlaQueer Southern-born healing practitioner and visual artist whose cultural ties to Creole and Deep South identities inform her work to better serve, center, and nurture gender-marginalized folks in her community. This background is where Crystal's commitment to reproductive justice is rooted, alongside her racial justice movement work, healing justice lens, being a community mama, and desiring a life of autonomy, deep joy, and integrity for historically devalued folks. Crystal is currently serving as the Communications and Digital Media Coordinator with Amplify, integrating her love for meaningful conversation, impactful aesthetics, and revolutionary change.
