The Project

Lauren’s Fellowship addressed the need for victims of crime to have support and guidance through the legal system. This legal support makes it easier for victims to come forward when crimes occur and get them the resources they need to protect themselves. By helping victims report crimes and navigate the legal system, government agencies are better equipped to locate criminals involved in trafficking crimes and prosecute them more effectively. 

Lauren’s Crime Victims Justice Corps Fellowship focused on victims of crime to ensure they were notified of their rights as victims of crime. Lauren worked specifically with victims of labor and sex trafficking to address their needs and ensure they knew of their rights. 

Lauren has experience working with low-income populations at various nonprofits; she has also worked on criminal law, immigration, and public benefit cases in the pastShe is passionate about helping communities that are under-served, and she believes helping trafficking victims overcome obstacles is extremely rewarding.
