Jolene Forman - The Just Trust

Jolene is the head of grantmaking at The Just Trust. She’s spent her entire career in the justice reform space—from the early days working at a syringe exchange and running a jail reentry program, to earning her J.D. and serving in numerous high-level legal and policy roles at advocacy organizations and philanthropies across the country. She brings her expertise in law and policy and her deep compassion together to serve as The Just Trust’s chief program officer. Just Trust is a grantmaking organization that is 100% dedicated to criminal justice reform. We’re also two organizations–The Just Trust and The Just Trust for Action–and together, these organizations are working to grow the pool of 501(c)3 and 501(c)4 resources available to advocates, organizers, and trailblazers who are leading the fight for a more dignified, humane, and frankly, much smaller engine of justice in this country.
