Gwen Gallagher is an Outreach & Prevention Advocate at Turning Point Domestic Violence Services. She graduated with her bachelor’s degree in public health from Bradley University and is currently pursuing her master’s degree in public health with a focus in family and community health through Purdue University.

Odalys Landa serves as the Outreach Coordinator for McHenry County, diligently working in the fields of mental health and recovery since 2018. My lived experience as an Immigrant who used substances allows me to connect with my community and educate friends, family and strangers who have needed someone who speaks their language. My experience working in MAT and in Kane/DuPage County has allowed me to expand my resources across 3 counties. Breaking the stigma in the Hispanic communities is my passion. I am a proud DACA recipient and will always advocate for any marginalized group.
