Founder and Director of Little People’s Victory, Nicolalita is a Licensed Masters Social Worker and Community Health Worker (Promotora de Salud) with over a decade of experience working primarily within frontline communities. She has spent her professional career bridge building and gap filling in the fields of mental and behavioral health, domestic violence, developmental disabilities, juvenile justice, social justice, public health and school systems as a social worker, trauma therapist, community organizer, community health worker and support professional.

As a multiracial, multicultural, fat woman of color who grew up poor working class, she not only understands but embodies intersectionality and the oppression and erasure that comes with it. These experiences, personally and professionally have helped her to thoroughly understand the impact these intentionally flawed systems have on our mental health and holistic well-being and fuels her passion for centering, dance, movement, play, joy and love in all she does.
