Natali Hurtado | Lights on Texas

February's devastating winter storm has left millions of our fellow Texans in critical need, with many of our most vulnerable neighbors struggling to meet the most basic human necessity: food. Feeding Texas and its statewide network of food banks provides a critical life raft to these families in need, but the unprecedented demand requires unprecedented support.

To help mobilize Texans around the cause, Flow Studios and Texans for Change have partnered to produce Lights On Texas, a series of thought-provoking and inspiring discussion with Texas politicos, thought leaders, musicians, food bank directors, and youth volunteers. The initial six hour livestream is presented below in segments, which we invite you to share in ongoing support of Feeding Texas.

Natali Hurtado is a Latina who says she will fight for a stronger public education system, easier access to healthcare, and a more prosperous economy in her city of Houston, Texas.

Hurtado has seen support by prominent groups and politicians like Beto O’Rourke, the Latino Victory Fund, Planned Parenthood and the Houston Black American Democrats.
Deputy executive director at Hawes Hill & Associates, she works with the board of directors to improve the district through public safety initiatives, environmental and urban design projects, and community development programs.

She became a single mother at 19, and had to work through school while relying on her family and social assistance programs.

Still, Hurtado graduated from the University of Houston and moved on to earn a Master’s degree at the University of St. Thomas.

Her background was critical in her subsequent positions with elected officials at Houston City Hall, the Texas House of Representatives and Congress, giving Hurtado a deeper knowledge of policies that affect her community.
