Greensboro, North Carolina ∙ North Carolina A&T State University

Kyla Holton is an Honors, 3rd-year student at North Carolina A&T State University studying Liberal Studies with a concentration in Pre-Law and minors in English and Political Science. She aspires to attend law school after her undergraduate studies and enter the field of public policy.

Kyla has realized that many people are not civically and politically engaged because they need more time and resources to understand the information. She also has a particular passion for children, especially those impacted by mental health issues in environments lacking resources.

Her overall passion is to build power within people rather than over people so that they have the necessary skills to uplift and develop their own communities for the overall betterment of society. She values advocacy, activism, and social justice for those impacted by incarceration and white supremacy.
