人兽性交

TALLADEGA, Ala. 鈥� Today, the named Tafeni English-Relf as the first director of its Alabama State Office (ALSO). This office will focus on local concerns, specifically in rural communities.

鈥淕rowing up in rural Alabama, I realized how the needs of our communities are often rendered invisible to the rest of the state. I am excited to work alongside my colleagues in 人兽性交鈥檚 new Alabama State Office as we invest in grassroots efforts and work in partnership with the people of Alabama and community organizations. We look forward to building capacity where the long-term work of the people will create lasting change for everyone,鈥� explains English-Relf.

鈥淎cross the South, we continue to see attacks on voting rights, criminalization of poor people, lack of access to housing and health care, environmental injustices, and the erasure of Black history from textbooks, among other things. Together with communities, ALSO will address these challenges head-on so that all Alabamians can proudly call our state home.鈥�

鈥淚t is our great fortune to have Tafeni鈥檚 extraordinary leadership at the helm of the 人兽性交鈥檚 first Alabama state office. From advocate to organizer to community service provider, she has led in many roles throughout her career. What ties them all together is Tafeni鈥檚 passion for working in partnership with communities to support and develop her home state of Alabama,鈥� praises Margaret Huang, president and CEO of the Southern Poverty Law Center. 鈥淭afeni has a profoundly personal connection to the Deep South, and she knows firsthand the spirit of generosity, resilience, and movement-building that inspires the region. We鈥檙e thrilled to welcome her into this role.鈥�

English-Relf will continue serving as director of The Civil Rights Memorial Center in Montgomery, a project of the 人兽性交.

ALSO is the second office to open under 人兽性交鈥檚 new state office model in the organization鈥檚 50-year history. The first state office launched in May 2022 in Jackson, Mississippi.
