NICOLE REKSOPURO (she/her)

Nicole Reksopuro attends Adrienne C. Nelson High School and has a passion for social justice. Nicole was chosen out of 1,060 students to be a part of her school district’s youth equity committee. She, along with many others from different schools, come together and discuss inequities within their schools with the school district board. Furthermore, Nicole is an active member of her speech and debate team and spends most of her time researching, preparing speeches, and competing at tournaments.


Outside of her academic pursuits, Nicole continues her devoted commitments to equity by being a part of the leadership council at Girls Inc, where Nicole strives to help uplift underrepresented women's voices with advocacy, policy writing and more. Nicole is also a part of the 2024 Oregon Health Advocate Cohort, where she helps combat systematic obstacles that prevent students from receiving healthcare directly from their school. She has been selected as one of her school’s Student Ambassadors for the Asian American Youth Leadership Conference, to help foster a safe environment for those of Asian heritage to come together and bond over their rich culture.


This is Nicole’s first year participating in LWVOR Youth Council, and she has her eye on making civic participation a smoother experience for everyone. Through leading workshops and registering young voters, she hopes to make her community (and the world) a better place. She is excited to advocate for voters across Oregon as a member of the LWVOR Youth Council and can be contacted at youthcrew@lwvor.org.
