Belen Iniguez

Co-founder/Board Chair
Pronouns: She/They

Belén Iniguez (she/they) is a proud queer changemaker from Jalisco, Mexico. She started organizing in rural East Texas (ETX) as a college student, because she saw the need for year-round organizing in rural communities of color. She has prior experience in the Texas Legislature and a proven track record in campaign and nonprofit fundraising. Driven by a belief in the power of marginalized communities, Belén is dedicated to amplifying their political potential and cultivating inclusivity throughout ETX. When she’s not working on passion projects, you can find her tending to her plant babies or skateboarding.
