Jezabeth Fernanda Najera She/Her  (JEZ)  – Peer Support Specialist

I am a Bilingual (Spanish & English) Peer Support Specialist at ICSI, passionate about advocating for our youth and community. I have a background working in Fresno Unified schools and as a Behavioral Technician. 

My struggles with mental health, self-harm, and hospitalizations have inspired me to normalize these conversations in the community and show others they are not alone. I value bringing light to people’s lives and helping them see that things truly can get better.

I love running and training in Muay Thai, which help me stay grounded and at ease. Living day to day without my meds allows me to break stereotypes and show different paths to wellness.
