Bloomberg Fellow

Farrell is a Senior Consultant for the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network (RAINN). She works with clients across a variety of industries, including secondary and higher education institutions, government agencies, hospitality companies, humanitarian aid organizations, and non-profits, to shape safer and more supportive communities. In her role, Farrell designs and leads trainings on topics ranging from trauma-informed communication, to healthy boundaries and consent. She also provides guidance related to sexual misconduct policies and programming with the goal of helping communities reduce barriers to reporting, increase transparency into the response process, and mitigate the risk of re-traumatization. Farrell leverages her background in harm reduction, LGBTQ community services, and sexuality education to help strengthen cultures of sexual violence prevention.



RAINN is the nation’s largest anti-sexual violence organization. RAINN operates the National Sexual Assault Hotline (800.656.HOPE,

RAINN’s consulting services department works directly with client organizations to help improve their sexual misconduct awareness, prevention and response programming. Through a victim-centered, trauma-informed lens, the consulting services department provides tailored solutions that include training and education, comprehensive program assessments, policy reviews, client-branded hotlines, and facilitated dialogues with community leadership.
