Jordyn Marsh
Emerging as a true leader, Jordyn Marsh is a passionate advocate and voice for women and men working to end sexual violence in all forms. A vibrant voice, Jordyn has been instrumental in helping college campuses, including her alma mater, Northwestern Michigan College, open up the dialogue concerning a culture built around sexual violence and rape.
The work that Jordyn engages within each day revolves around facilitating and leading local peer support and advocacy groups. By also sharing her own story of survival, she is able to harness bits of her struggle, exchanging pain for healing. Within that instrumental work, Jordyn has inspired others by playing a vital role in community events, like photo campaigns and mid-scale awareness events such as Take Back the Night, empowering 5K walk-runs, as well as grass-roots advocacy work throughout the Northern Michigan community.
Within a period lasting less than five years, Ms. Marsh has not only gained attention locally but nationally as well. Jordyn would be the first to admit that she never dreamed her work could have such a force in a community; what began with an inner courage and strength has grown into a voice all its own.
