Founder, Rise

Amanda Nguyen is a social entrepreneur, civil rights activist, and the CEO and founder of Rise, a non-governmental organisation which aims to protect the civil rights of sexual assault and rape survivors. Rise’s goal is to scale up a social movement to pass their Sexual Assault Survivors’ Bill of Rights through a UN resolution, in all 50 states of the US and then on the national level. Rise is already the most successful legislative reform movement, as it has already successfully passed 42 laws securing equal protection under the law for 84.8 million survivors of sexual assault.
