Our team
Leadership rooted in lived truth, strategy, and care.
Dreaming Justice is led by people who believe directly impacted communities should hold real power in the work that shapes their lives.

Founder and Managing Executive Director
Dr. Christy Perez
Dr. Christy Perez founded Dreaming Justice Project from a belief that people most affected by punishment, exclusion, and systemic violence are also the people best equipped to lead us toward something better.
Her work brings political education, organizational strategy, reentry support, narrative change, wellness, and community partnership into one practice. She leads with the conviction that freedom must be material, shared, and built alongside the people systems have tried to silence.
Team directory
More profiles are coming.
Dreaming Justice is growing its staff and community leadership team. We will add confirmed names, roles, biographies, and photographs here as the directory is finalized.
We will never use unnamed staff as decoration. Each person will be introduced with the clarity and recognition their work deserves.
