BOARD OF DIRECTORS

Monique Smiley
Interim President
“As a rural Oregonian with strong ties to North and Northeast Portland, I know the burden of air pollution is not evenly shared across the state and affects Black, Indigenous, and people of color. We cannot improve air quality without addressing the systemic, root causes. That’s why I’m proud to be working with Neighbors for Clean Air and advocating for healthier communities.”

Renee Hackenmiller-Paradis
Interim Treasurer
“I serve on the NCA board because clean air is critical to the public’s health – and securing that takes knowledge of the complex laws (or lack of) that regulate air quality. NCA has the knowledge and the passion to make real, lasting change to ensure Oregon’s clean air.”

Mary Lou Soscia
Interim Secretary
“I have spent over 40 years as an advocate for the environment and the people who are most harmed by environmental damage to water, land and air. I am honored to bring my dedication and commitment to clean air as a Board member for NCA. I look forward to celebrating successes and accomplishments as we work together to protect human health in the years ahead.”

Ashia Allen
“I serve on the NCA Board because clean air is personal for me. Growing up on the Elliot neighborhood, environmental pollution led to numerous respiratory illnesses. NCA is creating a different future for children and all community members.”
