Originally from a low-income community in North Alabama, Ms. Guerrier moved to Philadelphia in 2017 to join the Public Interest Law Center with a focus on environmental justice. Throughout her life, Ms. Guerrier has been dedicated to advocating for individuals of all backgrounds and communities across the country, including those disproportionately affected by pollution, climate change, and other inequities.
