The DC Fiscal Policy Institute welcomes Simone Holzer as our new Communications, Development, and Outreach Assistant.
Simone graduated from Kenyon College in May 2016 with a B.A. in sociology, which allowed her to study various aspects of inequality and social change. In particular, Simone is interested in the structural causes of inequality and the best ways to address these issues on both a small and large scale.
Simone comes to DCFPI through AVODAH, the Jewish service corps, which works to strengthen the Jewish community’s fight against poverty in the United States by placing Corps members at a diverse range of anti-poverty organizations.
Originally from the DC area, Simone recently moved back to the District to be part of AVODAH, and she is excited to become more immersed in DC’s anti-poverty fight through her work at DCFPI.
In her spare time, Simone enjoys cooking and doing pottery.
