We are beyond thankful for Nicole’s leadership. In five years, she created a transformative power building and political force—and most importantly, she helped us live our commitment to equity and anti-racism. Grateful to have this superstar volunteer on speed dial 😏

kept us sane 🙌

There’s no one better to lead New Era Colorado than Christina. She’ll also be making history as the first person of color in the role (and we all know it’s past time that a woman of color sits at the helm of this organization)!

We are SO excited to share about our “new era” for youth power: Executive Director Nicole Hensel is passing the torch to Christina Soliz!

@christinasoliz.bsky.social joined us as Deputy Director in 2023 and launched our endorsement program, led us through a base-building transformation, and . . .

It only seems fitting that our first post coincides with the first day of Colorado’s legislative session. We’ve got our eyes (and brains lol) set on economic justice.

Follow us and @neweracoloradoaf.bsky.social as we migrate over here!
