Joy George

Joy George, born and raised in the Bronx as the daughter of Nigerian diaspora, has found herself at the intersections of love, transformation, restoration and social change in her work and activism. A graduate of NYC Public Schools and Swarthmore College now working in the state of Maine at Mindbridge and the Restorative Justice Institute of Maine, she is working towards planting and watering the seeds of restorative culture.  After serving as a counselor at Seeds of Peace International Camp in the summer of 2019, Joy attended the 2019 North American Leadership Jam and found herself blessed with radical healing, truth and community– and now she is back again for more!
