Natalia Lazor

Natalia Lazor is a coordinator for the Breaking Barriers program, working for McGeorge School of Law since the spring of 2024. Lazor has great pride in her alma mater, the University of California at Merced, where she obtained a Bachelor of Arts in psychology and a minor in writing. Her post-grad journey began with a short-term appointment overseas, working on a renovation project to create an accessible space for travelers with disabilities.

Upon returning home, she found a position with Breaking Barriers California early in 2023, before the transition into the University. Breaking Barriers is a California-based organization dedicated to uniting the system to better serve children, youth, and families. This role challenges and contributes to the development of an expansive skillset, including budget oversight and financial management, event planning, and research. She is eager to continue working toward reforming California's child & youth serving system to create a more responsive, supportive, and integrated structure.
