Making WAVES In Healthcare!

Big congratulations to our very own Naialie Lor, WAVES’ Administrative Assistant, on her acceptance into the Bachelor of Science of Nursing program at University of North Carolina (UNC) for Fall 2026!

Selected through an incredibly competitive admissions process, Naialie’s achievement reflects both her academic dedication and deep commitment to community health. At WAVES, she plays a key role in supporting internal operations and advancing youth mental health initiatives within the communities we serve. As a proud Hmong woman and daughter of refugee parents, her passion for culturally responsive care and breaking mental health stigma is deeply personal. We’re so excited to see her continue this journey and bring that same compassion and advocacy into her future as a nurse.

UNC is lucky to have you…and so are we! Congratulations, Naialie!
