Vanessa Lopez

Outreach Coordinator

Hello! I’m Vanessa Lopez, the Outreach Coordinator for Cochise Harm Reduction and a dedicated Board Member for DPRAB (Drug Policy Research and Advocacy Board) at the University of Arizona.

My passion lies in breaking the barriers of drug-related stigma and offering hope, respect, and dignity to those who need it most. At CHR, I work to build meaningful connections with communities and provide essential support and resources to those facing challenges. As a proud member of DPRAB, I advocate for evidence-based drug policy research and impactful advocacy efforts.

I truly believe in the power of compassion and understanding, and my work is driven by a deep desire to make a positive impact on the lives of others.
