Ela'jah Dixon

Elajah Dixon (she/her) is currently in her final year of pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Cognitive Science, Criminology, and Law Studies, with a minor in Mental Health Applications. She was drawn to CRDJ because of its clear mission and the intentionality behind its work. She found it powerful to see that real research and action are being done, not just in the name of justice, but specifically for communities that are too often overlooked. This summer, she's been focused on a project centered around Know Your Rights education and research on involuntary hospitalization. Through this work and beyond, she hopes to continue being a voice for those who are often silenced or ignored.
