Robyn K. Hasan started as a contractor in June 2020 with Women on the Rise and rose quickly in the organization by becoming an Executive Assistant, Program Coordinator, Managing Director and through recent leadership and determination, the Executive Director in January 2022. Since coming home in 2020 after serving 10 years in prison, Robyn has been fighting to reform the criminal legal system through the campaign of Closing the Atlanta City Detention Center, which has gained national attention. She is the point person for Georgia Clemency program for women that originated from the National Council for Incarcerated Women and Girls. While inside, Robyn created a newsletter to help uplift women in her situation. Since coming home, she continued the newsletter through Women on the Rise and Reverse the Cycle of Incarceration. This newsletter helps keep women left inside informed and aware of the laws and changes that are being made that affect them inside as well as addressing issues upon coming home. Ms. Hasan is also a part of the Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force on Criminal Justice Reform and a Just Leadership Fellow of 2022. She lives in Atlanta with her daughter, Nadya, and four-legged friend, Nova.
