Empathetic, Outspoken, and Adaptable
"Dawn Falokun is a biology major with a premedical studies co-major and a minor in Global Health Studies at Miami University. In addition she is a resident advisor and holds executive positions for the African Student’s Union and the Minority Association of Pre-Heath Students.
During Social Innovation Weekend, she worked on a team of people from across the university –– Tyler Kolocouris, Carly Schweitzer, and Caroline Weiner. She and her team learned that at least 27% of youth transitioning out of the foster care system end up experiencing homelessness by the age of 21. To address this need, they designed a project, “Framing Stability,” to help ensure transitional aged youth in the foster care system have the support, skills, and resources to become productive, stable, housed adults. Dawn’s team advanced to the finals and their pitch placed third after deliberation by judges.
In the future, once Dawn has obtained her medical degree she hopes to continue to work with health inequities, specifically surrounding maternal health.”
