Nina is a first generation honors student who got a scholarship to do her masters degree in Sociology. In January of 2016, Nina was brutally assaulted by a police officer in Greeley, Colorado when walking home with friends. The officer broke her humorous in 3 places which required surgery and 50 staples in her arm. This injury and the nerve damage was so severe that doctors told her she would never be able to use her arm again. 

When she was assaulted, Nina was in her second semester of graduate school but was unable to finish her last class when an overwhelming burden of pain and lawyer bills plagued her and her family. We ask that you offer what you are able in order to help Nina’s family pay off the lawyer debt, finish her last masters class, and continue to heal from the trauma of police brutality.
