Danielle Anani

Danielle joined Legal Aid DC in July 2023 as a Public Benefits Specialist in the Public Benefits Unit. Danielle helps clients apply for public benefits and find non-legal resources to assist them with their benefit matters. She also helps clients resolve public benefits issues through formal and informal advocacy within government agencies. 

Danielle has lived experience that led her to partner with Georgetown Law to advocate for her community, so that those without a voice could be heard. Danielle plans to continue her mission of helping people and advocating for those in need.

Danielle attended Bennett College in 2018 with a major in biology and minor in chemistry. She is currently enrolled at the University of District of Columbia studying sociology.
