Kaylyn Ahn is the queer daughter of Korean immigrants and a survivor of domestic and sexual violence. After their sexual assault case was denied by prosecutors, she helped draft and testified for HB5441 to close a loophole in Illinois criminal sexual assault law. She organized a March For Asian Lives and Say it With Pride: Equality Now! which successfully repealed laws that prohibited dressing in clothing “of the opposite sex.” Currently, she is a sophomore studying Social Policy and Legal Studies at Northwestern University. On campus, she is the Equity Inclusion Chair for the Undergraduate Prison Education Partnership and the Events Chair for SPEAK (for sexual assault awareness). In the winter of 2021, she fled her home due to domestic violence and became a homeless/unaccompanied youth. Kaylyn hopes to conduct research on employment and domestic violence; in her future, she hopes to become a lawyer to advocate for homeless queer youth.
