Julia grew up in the Upper Valley and has recently returned to the area after graduating from the University of Michigan with a Masters of Public Health and Social Work. Julia works at the Hartford Community Restorative Justice Center (HCRJC), which advances community-led solutions to harm through restorative justice programs, reentry support, and transitional housing. As an organization, HCRJC creates real alternatives to the traditional justice system by centering accountability, healing, and public safety, helping people repair harm, rebuild trust, and reenter their communities with dignity and support. Julia has experience in Disability Justice, Reproductive Justice, addressing gender-based violence, and intersectional feminist praxis. She dreams of a world in which everyone is free and no one is left behind.

  • Finally, Alice R. Ely, MPH, is Executive Director of the Public Health Council of the Upper Valley, which serves as the Advisory Council for one of the State of New Hampshire’s 13 regional health networks. PHC is a broad coalition of advocates on public and population health issues in the greater Upper Valley region. Ms. Ely has been a leader in the effort to build community-driven leadership for public health improvement in the Upper Valley of New Hampshire and Vermont since 2010.
