Ginny Oshiro

Program Manager

Ginny believes that public health is the vehicle to transform carceral systems. She brings lived experience as a formerly incarcerated person and has worked closely with organizations that serve currently and formerly incarcerated populations. Ginny has experience as a researcher studying the transformative power of the arts in prisons and as a policy advocate in the criminal legal reform landscape. She is currently pursuing her doctoral degree at the University of Southern California, driven by the belief that research has served as a catalyst for meaningful reforms within the criminal legal system. Previously, Ginny was a Robert Wood Johnson National Health Policy Research Scholar and is an alumna of the Solis Policy Institute and Project Rebound. She is deeply committed to leveraging research and policy to drive systemic change within the criminal legal system.
