Lorelei is an Indigenous Salish/Coast Salish woman of the Skatin/Sts'Ailes Nations, living in Vancouver, Canada. She is the founder of Butterflies in Spirit and until recently, she also served as the Women's Coordinator at the Vancouver Aboriginal Community Policing Centre, addressing Indigenous social justice issues. In addition, Lorelei has been an Indigenous counselor at the Rape Crisis Center (WAVAW) and coordinator of the Golden Eagle Rising Society, an Indigenous nonprofit organization that provides support, training and advocacy programs to initiatives and organizational efforts that promote and protect Indigenous lives throughout British Columbia. Lorelei has been active in Collecting Information on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women in Vancouver, and in urban political and community advocacy groups and relatives of the disappeared and murdered. It is because of her work that Lorelei received the 2017 Everyday Political Citizen Award from the Samara Center for Democracy and multiple other recognitions. She has also participated in the recovery of bodies of disappeared persons in Mexico, meeting with family members of the missing at the Winnipeg Landfill, the 2023 Women for Peace Festival in Colombia, the 2024 National Day of Victims of the Disappear in Mexico, and the 2024 International Indigenous Fashion Week in Paris.
