Kathy Grissom

Educator and Environmentalist
 

I have always believed that all living things are interconnected and have been concerned about the fate of our beautiful earth since I read Silent Spring many years ago. I want to do what I can to raise awareness about the seriousness of our climate situation and work to change the direction we have been going as a community. I volunteer with North State Climate Action and Schools for Climate Action.

I retired from my career as a Special Education teacher and Behavior Specialist a few years ago. Before that, I mostly worked in other settings with at risk youth and spent a few years as a Conservationist with the California Conservation Corps. Now, I spend my time riding my horse, packing into the mountains, camping, fishing, relaxing and working on my 5 acres.
