Having gone from a comfortable middle-class life to becoming homeless shortly after his parents’ separation, Trevor learned from an early age how one stroke of bad luck entirely beyond one’s control can radically transform the rest of a person’s life. After spending much of his upbringing in an environment full of childhood risk factors (substance use, violence, and unstable living conditions), he experienced the consequences of adverse childhood experiences firsthand. Upon graduating high school, Trevor found himself with few options and little hope for the future. In the hopes of finding direction and a better life, he enlisted in the United States Marine Corps in 2018 and became an Electronic Intelligence Analyst. He attended signals intelligence training in San Angelo, TX, before being permanently stationed aboard Camp Pendleton in California. He served until 2022, at which point he was honorably discharged from active duty service as a Corporal (E-4). After completing his term in the Marine Corps, Trevor returned to Sonoma County to live with his family and pursue his dream career in healthcare. He was soon appointed to become a Central Committee member of the Sonoma County Democratic Party, an opportunity through which he rallied the local party to support improving staffing ratios for mental health providers. He championed a public school safety effort to provide more mental health resources to students and families to combat emerging instances of violence on Sonoma County campuses. Lastly, he went to bat in defense of LGBTQ+ youth when local nonprofits became the targets of homophobic and transphobic attacks. Later that year, he stepped down from his committee position to serve the County of Sonoma as a Human Rights Commissioner for their fourth district. As of 2024, Trevor now serves as an Officer-at-Large of the county commission. He also works as a Registered Behavior Technician, working with children who have developmental disabilities to help them in learning healthy coping strategies in addition to social and independent living skills. Now blessed with the opportunity to serve the state of California as a Youth Empowerment Commissioner, Trevor aims to use his lived experience as a catalyst for change. He is a strong advocate for public investment in mental health treatment, affordable housing, the expansion of disability rights and resources, and the reimagination of public schools to better serve the needs of today’s younger generations. Coming from a background in both public service and healthcare, his vision is driven by an inherent belief in the goodness of people and the importance of our institutions laying the groundwork for individuals to make positive life decisions. As he sees it, it is essential that government bodies refine their focus towards the prevention of problems rather than perpetually battling them once they’ve already occurred. Trevor Merrell brings a dense lifetime of experience, persistence through hardship, well-tested leadership abilities, and a pragmatic focus on making tangible change to the Youth Empowerment Commission. He is honored to serve the state of California, and thrilled to fight for the futures of our young people.</p></div> </div> </div><div class="et_pb_module et_pb_divider et_pb_divider_10 et_pb_divider_position_ et_pb_space"><div class="et_pb_divider_internal"></div></div><div class="et_pb_with_border et_pb_module et_pb_team_member et_pb_team_member_29 clearfix et_pb_bg_layout_light"> <div class="et_pb_team_member_image et-waypoint et_pb_animation_off"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="400" height="400" src="https://youthempowerment.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/sites/359/2024/08/GiselleMorris.jpg" alt="Giselle Morris" srcset="https://youthempowerment.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/sites/359/2024/08/GiselleMorris.jpg 400w, https://youthempowerment.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/sites/359/2024/08/GiselleMorris-300x300.jpg 300w, https://youthempowerment.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/sites/359/2024/08/GiselleMorris-150x150.jpg 150w" sizes="(max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px" class="wp-image-128" /></div> <div class="et_pb_team_member_description"> <h3 class="et_pb_module_header">Giselle Morris</h3> <div><p id="giselle-morris">Giselle Morris, a rising college freshman from California’s Central Coast, is a passionate advocate for youth empowerment and environmental sustainability.
