Emily Pieper
Director of Programming
emily@stonewallyouth.org

I first started working at Stonewall Youth 3 years ago as an intern who was charged with organizing the annual Bowl-a-thon and I haven't been able to leave since! I am a recent graduate of the Evergreen State College and have lived in Olympia since I was born. I continue to appreciate the sense of community we have here and push to figure out ways we can continue to grow together. I am passionate about popular education, community organizing, art, support young people - and of course learning as much as I can about the world around me.
