MEET CRYSTAL

From Lived Experience
to Research
to Action.

Crystal Fedeli is a social researcher and policy analyst, speaker, trainer, consultant, and award-winning nonprofit founder and executive director.

​

Her work began with lived experience navigating coercive control and family court. Turning to research and interviewing nearly 100 survivors and professionals, she came to understand that the challenges women face are not simply individual, but are also shaped by institutional responses.

​

Today, she brings together lived experience, research, and professional expertise to work directly with women navigating family court, educate institutions and professionals, and advance research and public education on financial coercive control and the barriers to leaving and rebuilding.
