Clementine Jacoby
Clementine Jacoby is the co-founder and CEO of Recidiviz, a nonprofit that untangles the fragmented, decades-old data systems that quietly trap people in the U.S. criminal justice system. A former Google product manager and aerial-hoop acrobat who once taught circus to gang members in Brazil, she built Recidiviz out of a Google volunteer project after watching her own uncle cycle through prison. Within two years of launch, the platform helped states identify and release more than 40,000 people who had already earned their freedom. She is a TED Fellow, a Forbes 30 Under 30 and TIME100 Next honoree, and one of Fast Company's Most Creative People.

He is a TED Fellow, a TIME100 Next honoree, and a Forbes 30 Under 30 recognized for arguing that civil rights should be free.
