New Orleans women talk New Orleans and women.
Femme Fatale Friday: Jennifer Sachs
I first met Jennifer through emails with Katrina Warriors, a local group who came together to support area women and girls shortly after the storm. Founding nodes of the Katrina Warriors Network were
Ashe Cultural Arts Center, The Guardians Institute, Loyola Women’s Resource Center, Newcomb College Center for Research on Women, The New Orleans Regional Alliance Against Abuse (2005-2006), the New Orleans Women’s Studies Consortium, UNO Women’s Center, and V-Day.
Jennifer is a one woman community service dynamo working her magic all over the internets. She maintains the official FaceBook page for Katrina Warriors in addition to her own page, Katrina Warriors (heart) Yoni De Lis, where she keeps us up to date with issues of wellness, education, advocacy and environment (just for starters) that affect New Orleans and the Gulf Coast.
Jennifer has another FaceBook page, Holistic Health and Natural Healing, that is one of my favorite pages. Her page states,
“This group is intended to serve as a networking – informational site for any & all people interested in the beliefs, practices, and activism regarding the union of the body, mind, spirit and soul through Holistic Healing.”
She links to information and articles in various disciplines of the natural/holistic lifestyle such as Traditional Chinese Medicine, Aromatherapy, nutrition and herbal medicine and issues a newsletter through FaceBook as well.
Her latest venture on the web is FaceBook page, NOLA-Haiti Solidarity, for expressions of solidarity for Haiti.
Below are links to all of Jennifer’s pages and her Twitter ~ this is one information guru you want to follow!
