Before ISAC, Salma worked with youth and adults experiencing homelessness. This was a rewarding experience since it gave her the opportunity to assist a lot of people through tough times. “But I wanted to do more—something that could help people not just survive but thrive. I wanted to see people succeed, and that’s what drives me in my work now.”
