Javon Knight earned his Master鈥檚 in Public Policy in May 2020, where his policy interests in affordable housing, public transportation, and economic development informed his research on chronic homelessness in Florida.
Knight is a distinguished young professional. He's served as the inaugural minority fellow within the Public Policy Institute, a nationwide fellow and legislative assistant for the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation, and a member of the American Enterprise Institute鈥檚 Leadership Network Millennial Cohort, as well as a member of the district office of U.S. Representative Al Lawson.
鈥淢y interest in policy came out of my desire to drive positive change in the 91成人AV community,鈥� said Knight. 鈥淭he Public Policy Institute gave me the skills to identify, analyze, and create ethical, effective policy while connecting me with the opportunity to practice those skills on The Hill within the House of Representatives.鈥�
Now, Knight is currently a Policy Associate at Husch Blackwell Strategies and serves as the founding Community Engagement and Partnership Chair of the Public Policy Alumni Network. Knight is connected with local, state, and federal policy communities and is a champion of several social justice initiatives through public policy advocacy.
鈥淎s I grow within the policy field, I look forward to returning to 91成人AV to encourage the adoption of excellent public policy," Knight added. "This will allow 91成人AV to reach its full potential and become a city in which all its citizens flourish."
