In 2023 La Piñon appointed our new Executive Director, Angelica Calderon. Angelica has worked in many areas in our agency, from Advocate Coordinator, Director of Childrens Advocacy, Deputy Director, and she has conducted over 950 Forensic Interviews of children where child abuse/maltreatment was suspected. In her time thus far, we have one fully accredited satellite office in Deming, NM, a running satellite office in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, a new location for our SANE Unit, new grant funding, and a future of continued growth of victim services for our survivors of sexual assault and child abuse in Southern New Mexico. Angelica brings new ideas, passion, and hope for the future of La Piñon.
