Allison Coffman serves as the Director of Community Engagement at the Initiative, where she draws on her background of coalition building, strategic planning, and grassroots organizing to advance community-driven solutions for health equity. She brings over a decade of experience in the field of reproductive health, rights, justice and a commitment to mobilizing communities towards long-term systemic change.

With a BA from Washington University in St. Louis and a Master’s degree in International Development from the University of Pittsburgh, Allison began her career advancing equitable access to reproductive health care in Latin America. Most recently, she served as Executive Director of the Amplify Georgia Collaborative where she helped transform a time-bound donor initiative into a thriving, fiscally sponsored organization–tripling its annual budget, growing its distributed leadership model, and deepening its engagement of partner organizations across the state. She has also held key roles at CARE USA and Ipas, where she designed global programs, led multimillion-dollar proposals, and co-chaired efforts to embed equity and inclusion across organizational systems. Across every role, she has remained focused on building lasting relationships rooted in justice, equity, and collaboration.
