Nilsa Espinosa
Nilsa was born in the northeastern side of the Dominican republic, just right on the Haitian border in Dajabon. At a very young age started to get involved with different social groups as a volunteer giving orientations about HIV/AIDS, teen pregnancy and other problems that affected her community.
 
Started to work for 7 elements in 2021 as a local director and now as an executive director. Nilsa wants to continue growing as a professional and continues with a 7e legacy in the Dominican Republic by helping vulnerable communities, helping those that don’t have access to basic health care, that are affected by human security problems and don’t have a representation in society.
