Diana Lara Nevada Resilience Project Washoe Human Services AgencyDiana Lara – Washoe Human Services Agency

Diana recently graduated from the University of Nevada, Reno with a Bachelor’s in Public Health and a Minor in Biochemistry. Her passion for public health started when she volunteered for numerous non-profit organizations throughout Washoe county and realized how rewarding it was to give back to the community.

Diana has future plans of pursuing a Nursing degree from UNR and become a Public Health Nurse focusing in preventative care for the underserved communities and improving health at the community level. Through her recent role as a Resilience ambassador, Diana is excited to be able to assist families and individuals experiencing hardships during the pandemic.

In her free time, she enjoys cooking, baking, spending time with her fiancé and three dogs, cycling, and yoga.

Motivation Thursdays with Mrs. Samuels

Amanda Samuels is a Licensed Therapist practicing in Las Vegas. She is proud to be married to someone working on the frontlines during this pandemic. She has made it her goal to let all of the frontline, behind the scenes, and all of those in between workers and community members know how much they are appreciated and that their mental health matters.

Each week she provides a message in hopes to validate, educate, or encourage in regards to what you might be experiencing as you navigate the pandemic. She is honored to be sharing with you!
