Luna first learned about harm reduction when she joined a local Florida chapter of Students for Sensible Drug Policy in 2015. Previously, she worked as a bilingual coordinator for a syringe access program based out of an ASO in Denver, Colorado where she facilitated syringe access sessions, harm reduction education training, and case management for people who inject drugs. She is pursuing a dual Master of Social Work and Public Health degree in Colorado starting Fall 2021. Luna joined NEXT as the Bilingual Harm Reduction Content Expert in February 2021. She is committed to expanding harm reduction knowledge that is based in intersectionality and de-stigmatization of drug use. When not working, Luna enjoys spending time with her cat.
