JLUSA leaders celebrate victory in campaign against new $2 billion Atlanta jail project

July 16, 2024

Robyn Hasan Simpson (Leading with Conviction™ 2022), Executive Director of Women on the Rise, and Dominique Grant (LwC 2024 participant), Campaign and Operations Manager for Women on the Rise, today are celebrating the decision by Fulton County, Georgia, to not pursue a new $2 billion dollar jail project.

As they said in their campaign against the project, “Our communities need resources, not more jails.”

Our communities need resources,
not more jails.
