The Justice-oriented Youth (JoY) Education Lab strives to cultivate joy amongst our diverse community of scholars through our collective pursuit of justice in all its forms, particularly educational, racial, and social justice.

Meet Our Team

"The sharing of joy, whether physical, emotional, psychic, or intellectual, forms a bridge between the sharers which can be the basis for understanding much of what is not shared between them, and lessens the threat of their difference." - Audre Lorde

The Justice-oriented Youth (JoY) Education Lab is an intergenerational collective of youth, community residents, university faculty, and student researchers who center joy as the root and the fruit of our pursuit of educational, racial, and social justice through community-based programs and critical participatory action research projects.
