About

Hi, I’m Jocelyn.

I’ve been working for and on behalf of nonprofits for over 20 years. Most recently, I served as the inaugural Chief Development Officer for Public Rights Project. Before that, I served as chief philanthropy officer for Prosperity Now, a think tank working to close the racial wealth gap, and vice president of development for Global Fund for Children.

I’m deeply committed to advancing social, economic, and political justice for Black and other underrepresented people and communities. In 2018,  I co-founded BlackHer, a media company, to amplify the leadership of Black women and educate and inspire Black women to take action for progressive change.
