Domonique Robinson

My intended career path is centered on serving children, families, and vulnerable populations through social services and community-based support programs. After completing my Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice, I plan to pursue a Master of Social Work (MSW) to further develop my knowledge and skills in advocacy, case management, counseling, and trauma-informed care.
In the short term, I plan to continue advancing in leadership roles within youth development, residential services, and community programs. My professional goal is to work in positions that allow me to make a meaningful impact on the lives of individuals and families facing challenges such as homelessness, poverty, mental health concerns, and involvement with the child welfare or juvenile justice systems.
Long term, I aspire to establish and operate residential facilities and supportive housing programs throughout the Washington, DC metropolitan area and eventually nationwide. These programs would provide safe housing, life skills training, educational support, employment assistance, and other resources for youth aging out of foster care, families experiencing hardship, and individuals seeking stability and self-sufficiency.
Through my education, professional experience, and commitment to service, I hope to create lasting opportunities that empower people to overcome obstacles and build successful futures.

After completing my Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice at the University of Maryland Global Campus, I plan to pursue a Master of Social Work (MSW) at Howard University. My interest in graduate school stems from my passion for helping children, families, and individuals overcome challenges and achieve stability in their lives.
