Navila Rashid

Brooklyn, New York.

I'm a motivated and passionate person that advocates against social injustices, specifically in the realm of sexual violence, domestic/intimate partner violence and gender inequality.

I'm looking to break down social stigmas attached to sexual violence and domestic/intimate partner violence in our communities and to help promote more critical thinking in areas related to religion, gender theories, and mental/emotional health. I'm Interested in creating relationships across different multiracial/cultural/religious groups so as to initiate dialogue and change for a better and highly intellectual society.

Currently pursuing my Masters in Forensic Social Work. Future interests include and are not limited to: Taking the Phd route to further research crisis intervention and prevention within the realm of the criminal justice system for victims of sexual/domestic/intimate partner violence, Or Continue on to Law School.
