Chelsea Hylton
Chelsea Hylton is the Director of the Sherry and Alan Leventhal Center for Interfaith Families of the Jewish Federation of Greater New Orleans. As a partner in an interfaith marriage and as a new parent raising a child in the Jewish community, she feels deeply connected to the initiative of the Leventhal Center. In 2016 she founded Project Peaceful Warriors, a nonprofit that supports healing-centered learning spaces in New Orleans through trauma-informed yoga and mindfulness. She is in the process of completing her Healthy Birth Ambassador training through Healthy Birth Louisiana, a lasting innovative, culturally specific intervention to reduce poor birth outcomes in the state of Louisiana and beyond. Chelsea loves doing anything outdoors and on a sunny day in New Orleans can be found chasing her son Axel around Danneel Park.
