Adelita Serena is a long-time Climate Action Organizer and Community Leader in Woodland as a Maestra of Danza Azteca. Adelita is a Senior Community Engagement Coordinator for Sierra Club's Motherlode Chapter, serves as a Commissioner for Yolo County's Climate Action Commission, and Vice Chair for Woodland Sustainability Advisory Committee.

She has lived in Woodland for nearly two decades but grew up in Salinas and Coachella as part of a farm-working family. Following in the footsteps of her father, who worked with Cesar Chavez, Adelita started organizing when she was in high school, rallying her peers to put on street performances about local issues. This experience was so powerful that it lead her to work with at-risk youth as well as Survivors of Sexual Assault and Domestic Violence for many years.

Adelita is passionate about using her ability to communicate with underserved communities to improve their conditions by providing resources and services. As the mother of two young adults, she has become increasingly concerned about the climate change impacts they are already experiencing, from extreme heat to wildfires. She is passionate about developing and centering the leadership of women from marginalized communities to achieve energy democracy and preserve a livable climate.
