Jessica Colasanto

An Indigo love child gen-Xer born in shíshálh Hospital, Jessica began breaking down systemic barriers in elementary school, and a lifetime of unconventional personal choices has happily brought her to this place at this time.

Jessica has a BA from McGill University, and is known for holding Lift’s institutional knowledge, having started her relationship with the organization as a home-based contractor in 2001.

She now manages the Community Resources portfolio, and firmly believes that our work is by community, for community.

We live and work on the homelands and territories of the Tla’amin People. We honour the land, the Tla’amin People, and their treaty and continually seek to strengthen our relationship and responsibilities to them as guests in the territory.
