ABER KAWAS

Aber joined CLEAR in July 2024 as Associate Director of Partnerships. She is a Palestinian-American from Brooklyn, New York. After witnessing the effects of unjust War on Terror policies targeting close friends and family members, Aber has been organizing with the Arab and Muslim communities in New York City around issues such as police surveillance, racial profiling, and immigrant rights. Aber previously served as the NYC Advocacy Specialist with the Campaign to Take on Hate under the National Network of Arab American Communities. Before that, she served as Advocacy Director at the Arab American Association of NY.

Aber is excited to continue her work with CLEAR to help bring support and resources to movements that challenge injustice and fight for accountability.
