Organizing Director 

Nadeen M Ibrahim is the Organizing Director at the East Colfax Community Collective. She joined EC3 with more than 7 years of community organizing experience, largely in the Muslim community and its intersections. Her passion for community organizing is driven by her immigrant, Palestinian, Muslim, and rural identities. Through her community organizing, she co-founded the Muslim Youth Empowerment Conference, Denver Day of Dignity, and the Colorado Muslim Leadership Council – an umbrella organization addressing the concerns, needs, and aspirations of the nearly 100,000 people strong Muslim community. She also regularly collaborated with Muslim community leaders in East Colfax on statewide initiatives, such as Ramadan Food Care Packages and Muslim civil rights. She is a member of the mayoral appointed Denver Immigrant and Refugee Commission and a recipient of many community awards, including the Spring Institute Intercultural Champion Award and Council on American Islamic Relations Call to Service Award.

Nadeen holds a Bachelor of Science in public health from the University of Colorado – Denver and a Masters of Public Policy from the University of Oxford, England. Her community organizer has always strived to better understand and recognize social determinants of health, especially around housing, in hopes of driving policy change. In her free time, she loves to spend time exploring the rich, diverse food cuisine Denver has to offer.
