Staff Spotlight: Youth Engagement Specialist Christina Lupica. Since first joining the Wayside Multi, Christina has been a vital part of the Watertown community. She is dedicated to empowering youth through peer leadership, wellness groups, and programs focused on positive coping strategies as an alternative to substance use.
Christina oversees the WYC and Peer Leadership Program, and she is also a member of W2B2 Youth Wellness Coalition and Watertown Anti-Bias Coalition. Additionally, she runs life-skills groups for 12-22 year olds in Watertown and Waltham through Community Innovations program.
