Aija started organizing as a student leader with The People’s Lobby in Chicago, Illinois over a decade ago. They went on to co-found and direct Student Action, People’s Action’s national student organizing project that built power with college students and young people to win elections, fight for Free College for All, and work towards progressive change. Aija has 13 years of organizing experience, and they currently work at People's Action directing our Health Care for All campaign, working with affiliates around the country to develop winning strategies that advance our goal of winning tangible victories for the communities we represent.
