TERRA PRICE
LEVEL UP PROGRAM MANAGER
SHE/THEY
Mx. Terra Price is Program Manager for the after school enrichment club Level Up as well as a loyally devoted West Central neighbor. Level Up club members of all ability levels, in grades 3rd-5th, write and publish a newspaper, arts magazine, and summer guide for the Spokane Area.
Terra's diverse educational background helped prepare them for leadership in such a multi-faceted program. Identifying most as an artist, Terra received their AFA in Fine Arts from SFCC. Terra then enlisted in the Army where they were top of their class in Nutrition Care. Terra served at Madigan Army Medical Center while earning their BA in Psychology from Antioch University Seattle. After graduating with their degree and being honorably discharged from the Army, they moved back to Spokane to work with historically underserved teens in in-patient rehabilitation facilities and later Child Protective Services. Inspired by this experience, specifically the lack of placements for behaviorally challenging youth, Terra became a therapeutic foster parent. Terra’s final degree was an M.S. in Psychology with an emphasis on Brief Solution Focused Therapy, many elements of which have informed or directly integrated into the Level Up Curriculum alongside the art and writing.
