Ireland

Ireland Staff Team

Ben and Dorine Linn and their four children moved to Dublin Ireland from the Bay Area, California. Both have a background in social services and a passion to help people with addiction issues. They work within multiple homeless outreach and substance recovery programs in Dublin. Additionally, they host volunteer teams, interns, and other pathfinders.

E & Lis Becerra are originally from Venezuela but moved to Ireland in 2015. They have two young kids, Megan and Evan, who both were born in Ireland. E and Lis are Amoveo's newest team members in Ireland having a background in cross-cultural engagement. The Becerras have focused on developing trust within the immigrant community in Ireland, doing a lot of listening to understand the greatest need. In the space of one generation, Ireland has become a nation of immigrants. At 17.3 percent, Ireland has the second-highest foreign-born population in Europe, mostly due to recent immigration.
