Formerly the Chair of the GBIO Criminal Justice Reform Team, Ms. Williams organized and successfully led campaigns to reduce the rate and harm of incarceration. This helped lead to the state's 2018 Comprehensive Criminal Justice Reform Law and the 2020 Police Accountability Reform Law. Her work broadened GBIO's internal base of leaders and led to many strong partnerships, including ACLU and The Working Group for Criminal Justice Reform.
Currently, Ms. Williams has organized a local Boston community GBIO task team to help educate hesitant community members on COVID vaccination and increase community turnout. She is an active member of the Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church, Boston, a wife and mother of two adult sons. She has one granddaughter who she hopes is learning how to give something of herself to the betterment of the community.
