My name is Jennifer Berberian.
I have decided to dedicate my life to helping others. I want to give back to the community what was given to me. I dream of being able to help families who are struggling with substance abuse issues and mental illness. I want to assist others by providing them the support and resources they need to achieve their goals. I am a firm believer in second chances in life. I believe that mistakes and misfortunes in life do not define you, but in fact can have a positive influence in one’s life. I am proof that second chances can change a person for the better. A comeback after a setback is possible.

I am currently conducting undergraduate research with Dr. Vanessa Littleton- Lopez through the UROC program at CSUMB. We are funded through the Koret Foundation. Our research topic is, "Advancing Critical Consciousness to Erase Anti-Black Racism for Equity Advocates." More to come as our research progresses. |
