Hillary Anavwani

I am a passionate Social Worker and Community Development Advocate dedicated to empowering vulnerable populations through mental health support, Sexual and Reproductive Health and Rights (SRHR) education, and community engagement. With hands-on experience in gender-based violence case management, psychosocial support, and youth mentorship, I combine empathy, active listening, and professional expertise to create safe spaces where individuals can heal, learn, and thrive.

My work has taken me from grassroots outreach in informal settlements to facilitating capacity-building sessions for youth and community members, focusing on emotional resilience, mental health awareness, and rights-based education. I thrive at the intersection of advocacy, facilitation, and program implementation, committed to driving positive social change and sustainable development.
