Welcome Saudia!

We're excited to welcome our new Program Manager, Saudia Durrant! In this role, Saudia will serve as a co-facilitator of the Incarcerated Women’s Working Group and support GJF’s work at the intersection of gender and criminal justice.

Saudia brings almost 10 years of experience in youth and labor organizing and most recently served as a racial justice organizer at the Abolitionist Law Center. Saudia also has a background in journalism, which was her field of study at Temple University. In addition to interning at local radio stations, she has worked as a board operator at WURD and was the recipient of the 2020 Trudy Haynes Reporting Fellowship with PhillyCam.

We are grateful to the Oak Foundation , whose partnership made Saudia’s hire possible.
