Sapna Khatri is the Sears Clinical Law Teaching Fellow for 2021-2024 at UCLA School of Law and the Williams Institute. Her research takes an intersectional approach exploring the discriminatory impact of new technology and barriers to accessing sexual and reproductive healthcare. She previously worked as Advocacy and Policy Counsel and Staff Attorney at the ACLU of Illinois. Khatri worked on a range of reproductive health and justice issues, including religious refusals to reproductive healthcare and the connection of crisis pregnancy centers to faith-based medical providers. As Advocacy & Policy Counsel, Khatri focused on privacy, technology, and surveillance matters. She built an expertise in protecting biometric information privacy and successfully drafted and lobbied for the passage of the Protecting Household Privacy Act—a first of its kind law regulating government access to smart home devices.
