Kevin Nguyen

My name is Kevin Nguyen (he/him). I graduated from Carleton University with a BA in Childhood & Youth Studies because I'm passionate about child rights, education, and social policies like childcare
Although I currently work for the federal government, I got to spend 10+ years working with children and youth at organizations such as BGC Ottawa and Northern Youth Abroad. I loved getting to help youth with their homework and scholarship applications, learning about their goals, passions and culture, and getting to run activities like Game Night and Badminton

Kiana is an Ottawa-based lawyer developing a broad civil litigation practice, with a particular interest in constitutional law and human rights. She has worked and volunteered in a variety of political and non-profit roles focused on advancing social justice issues and bringing youth to the forefront of political advocacy. 

Kiana worked at Youth Action Now before beginning her legal studies and is beyond excited to be returning as a volunteer to continue to support the youth-led initiatives that are creating change in our communities.
