Our Allies:
Just Us Solutions has the privilege of working with an abundance of Seattle and Washington based organizations that aid us on our pursuit of justice.
Huskies for Opportunities in Prison Education
"HOPE is a group of University of Washington students who are dedicated to encouraging post-secondary education programs inside prisons, as well as support for formerly incarcerated/systems impacted college students. Our aim is to raise public awareness surrounding the need for more accessible educational opportunities to those incarcerated and formerly incarcerated."
Interaction Transition
"The mission of Interaction Transition is to benefit community safety by facilitating a successful transition by formerly Justice impacted, from life in prison to life in the community. I/T helps its participants meet certain critical basic needs, such as employment. The program greatly reduces the risk that participants will resume criminal activity, increases safety within the community, and advances successful reintegration with fellow community members."
Ella Foskett
Growing up in the shadow of San Quentin, Ella learned early that information can be the difference between being overlooked and finding a way forward. That insight shaped her path at the University of Washington, where she studied Law, Societies and Justice and became a determined advocate for people affected by the legal system. Her activism also led her to work with Books to Prisoners, a program connected to Left Bank Books, ensuring that incarcerated people can educate themselves in meaningful and unconventional ways. Through leadership roles, honors research, and public writing, she urged others to pair empathy with action and use knowledge as a tool for change. Today, she continues creating access to information, breaking down reentry barriers, and elevating voices too often ignored. Known for her steady follow-through and sharp analysis, Ella embodies a vision of justice grounded in access, dignity, and true possibility.
The Black Rose Collective
"The Black Rose Collective is a group of dedicated community organizers and support specialists directed by and accountable to our community –Black, Brown, Indigenous, and people of the global majority who are incarcerated, impacted by gun violence, or who face ongoing barriers of the reintegration process after legally liberated from the carceral system."
