Meet Our Team


Natalie Velez-Millan, Community Support Specialist

As the community support specialist, I strive to connect our community with the resources they need. While creating programs to help our patrons in a range of areas from health to learning a new skill. I look forward to providing opportunities to come together as a community while also meeting the needs of our patrons.
I have mental health training as I am currently an LMCH graduate student and provide groups at various library locations. I’m continually looking for ways to engage the community to help those who need assistance.
The Community Support Specialist position is funded and made possible by The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021.
