About Meg Gambino

I am currently the Director of Outreach at an Addictions Recovery Center, and enrolled to begin a Masters of Counseling Psychology with an Emphasis on Trauma. I have worked in the nonprofit sector at the intersection of Christian communities and vulnerable populations. I am most interested in unpacking institution-inflicted trauma and reconciling folks to themselves and their communities. I am passionate about empowering women, especially in spiritual communities.

Meg Gambino is an artist and activist currently working as the Director of Outreach for an addiction recovery center. Her life mission is to creatively empower others by modeling reconciliation between communities of people and people on the margins. Find her work at reconfigureart.com.
