Bethany Grace Howe
Pride & Praxis
Communications Consultant
Eugene OR
Dr. Bethany Grace Howe (she/her/hers) is a communications specialist for Oregon’s Department of Human Services. She also serves as a board member for Planned Parenthood of Southwest Oregon. A researcher, her 2020 University of Oregon School of Journalism dissertation served as the foundation for four published, peer-reviewed journal articles. This — coupled with her time as a newspaper journalist and columnist, as well as a former secondary and university journalism instructor — means she has spent most of her life working in media, though never doing any one thing for long. A stand-up comedienne in her lack of free time, she is also the proud parent of Nola, who is already a raging pro-LGBTQ+ advocate.
