Problem: Flagstaff and northern Arizona currently lack a medically assisted detox center, limiting critical opportunities for sobriety and healing for individuals struggling with drug and alcohol dependency.

I am actively collaborating with the Coconino County Attorney and other local stakeholders to bring a medically assisted detox center to Flagstaff, connected to a continuity-of-care program.

We need help with resources, best practices, providers and FUNDING!

I serve on the board of directors for the Willow Bend Environmental Education Center, which is Coconino County’s only year round environmental education non-profit serving the community. We are searching for a matching donor for our annual fundraiser. It has been a challenging few years for small non profits, so we’re increasing our fundraising efforts to cover gaps in grants and other funds we usually receive. If you know any organizations or individuals who might be interested in serving as a fundraiser match, please let me know.

Arizona is a behavioral health and recovery desert. Flagstaff recently adopted a resolution I drafted to support becoming a recovery-ready community, and I'd love to connect with agencies and organizations working in and across the state to find ways to adopt localized recovery capital efforts. I'd like to learn how other communities are supporting community health, including and especially behavioral health (mental health and substance use).

I would love to connect with communities working on housing solutions-based storytelling. I've worked in housing, advocacy, and community storytelling for the past decade plus and am eager to start a cross collaboration of local municipal leaders supporting housing initiatives. Please reach out at khara@oneflagstaff.com or khara.house@casacomms.com if you're interested in either!

As a member of Gen Z, and a tech native (having grown up with technology), I’m very interested and passionate about leveraging AI to improve workflows, organize data, and help organizations find ways to implement these tools effectively.

I would be more than happy to conduct AI 101 workshops for organizations or help them think of creative ways to use AI. However, I’m very adamant about doing so tastefully and avoiding “AI slop” which I see all too often now.

I’m a social psychologist and executive strategist, and I spend most of my professional life helping leaders make sense of complexity, particularly when the hardest part of the problem involves people.

I’m happy to be a thought partner if you’re navigating a difficult leadership challenge, preparing for a high-stakes conversation, dealing with competing perspectives or organizational dynamics, trying to build alignment or accountability, or simply have a situation where you can’t quite see the forest for the trees.

I’m also happy to be a resource around meeting/facilitation design, leadership development, and creating productive conversations around difficult issues.

I have 20+ years of experience in leadership and organizational development and am always happy to share tools, resources, or connections when I have them. If there’s something you’re wrestling with and another brain would help, reach out.

I’m always happy to connect with folks who are looking to ensure the voices of LGBTQ+ Arizonans are a part of & included in various levels policy & decision making - especially in housing/homelessness, healthcare, education, and public life (to name a few).

I’m also very passionate about reducing barriers to getting folks outdoors- especially opportunities for youth to go to camp & folks having access to Arizona’s wilderness/outdoor spaces - and taking good care of our states natural areas.

We are located in Phoenix and have 21 satellite sites across the state, so serve communities in several urban and rural areas of the state. Would love to chat with any of y’all. 🌲
