“I’m not big on numbers because 27 years was enough numbers for me, so I like to have conversations. I think that conversations provide meaningful pathways forward. The data gives you the foundation, but it’s the stories of lived experience that actually bring meaningful change.”
JustLeadershipUSA Executive Vice President Ronald Simpson-Bey joined a recent two-day training for prosecutors with Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, centered around the “more harm” incarceration inflicts on people; people who have often ended up in the criminal legal system because of harm they’ve experienced. This training was profiled in the Center for Court Innovation’s “New Thinking” podcast.
“New Thinking” is a podcast about people trying to fix a legal system that falls short of our ideals and the people organizing to build something new in its place, hosted by Matt Watkins and produced by the Center for Court Innovation.

In our 10th anniversary year, JustLeadershipUSA’s work of educating, elevating, and empowering justice-impacted leaders continues and is growing even stronger!
This is going to be a very special time to look back on the past decade of JLUSA’s important work, the 1,600+ leaders we have helped get to the next level in their work, and even more importantly, we will look ahead to the next 10 years and beyond!
We can’t do this without you. We need your support to help us continue to do this work now and into the future. By making a donation in honor of JLUSA’s 10th anniversary year, you are saying to the amazing leaders in our network who represent the 70+ million Americans who have been directly impacted by the criminal legal system, “I see you, and I support you!”
Please give a one-time $100 gift or set up a recurring $10 monthly donation to celebrate JLUSA’s 10th anniversary year, and together we will build a fair and just U.S. Thank you!
