Felicia Reyes

Felicia Reyes worked for the National Center for Youth Law (NCYL) in their Reproductive Health Equity Project for Foster Youth campaign. In her role as Program Associate and Senior Program Associate, she oversaw the Youth Advisory Board, acting as a liaison between RHEP's leadership team and the young leaders who inform RHEP's projects. Felicia received her degree in American Studies & Ethnicity from the University of Southern California in 2017, where she spent most of her time carrying out several youth-centered projects. Wanting to continue her work on youth issues, she joined Just in Time for Foster Youth where she managed three programs for transition-age youth that focused on college and career planning, housing, and mentorship. She spent the year prior to her tenure at NCYL teaching English and working with migrant women and children in Mexico on a Fulbright. Her interests lie at the intersections of systems and their impact on young people, and Felicia's primary goal is to continue to be an advocate for system-impacted youth through law, policy, advocacy, and community engagement. Felicia enjoys trying new foods, everything Harry Potter, and binging Netflix.
