OUR MISSION

The mission of the Avalan Institute is to connect just and objective data, research and strategy with organizations and campaigns to impact change as it relates to social justice, with a heightened focus on criminal justice, juvenile justice, and racial justice.

DR. NIAZ KASRAVI
Research Expert, Justice Advocate and Founder of the Avalan Institiute

As a social and criminal justice advocate, Dr. Kasravi draws upon her Iranian-American immigrant experience to help foster change in America's institutionally racist system, which routinely discriminates against people of color, the poor, and other marginalized communities.
