Nathalie Josué is currently studying Community Organization with Children, Youth in Families. Born to Haitian parents, she migrated to the U.S. at age 15. She holds a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Florida Atlantic University, and a Master of Arts in International Peace and Security from the University of London. Nathalie served in Swaziland as a Youth Development volunteer from 2016 - 2018. During her service, her most favored projects surrounded her tenure as a national Director for Peace Corps' girls' empowerment program GLOW (Girls Leading Our World). GLOW clubs are run by approximately 70 Swazi nationals (also known as GLOW counselors) whom she along with the other three directors, and local partnering organizations, worked to capacitate through a number of national trainings, and events. Peace Corps service has undoubtedly deepened her passion for community organizing and youth development work. She hopes to work alongside well-intentioned professionals that work to capacitate, and embolden the youth, especially Black, and Brown, to be the best version of themselves-so that they will not just struggle on but, they will thrive. Nathalie is an avid self-love advocate, Black hair and skin cosmetic DIYer and storyteller.
