Resistance Radio interview of Carolyn Shafer and Joni Clark Stellar

Carolyn Shafer has been working with PARA since shortly after it was formed in 2011, initially on the board of directors, including Board President, then as Mission Coordinator (ED). She has a wealth of knowledge about the special nature of the Patagonia Mountains and the battle to protect the water, air and wildlife of this special area.  Carolyn has a background in business management. She also owned a mine claim where she extracted turquoise for jewelry - she's the type of miner the 1872 Mining Law was designed for.  Joni Clark Stellar moved to Patagonia in 2022, after 4 years moving around the Southwest in my RV after  losing everything in the Paradise Fire of 2018. With a background in environmental nonprofit work, Joni offered to help PARA. She has served on the PARA board for a year, and also helps with communications and fundraising.
