Caity Baskin

Executive Assistant to the Director, General Project Coordinator

Caity Baskin is a 2023 magna cum laude graduate of Georgetown University, where she double majored in Government and English and minored in French. As an undergraduate, she interned for a Criminal Justice Act panel public defender, helping to draft motions and organize reentry resources for Incarceration Reduction Amendment Act (IRAA) applicants. This experience both affirmed and deepened her dedication to criminal justice reform, inspiring her to take the Prisons and Punishment course in the fall of her senior year. In the spring of 2023, she worked as a Student Program Associate for PJI, closely supporting the Director of Reentry Services to refine and expand PJI’s existing reentry programs. Caity now works as the Executive Assistant to PJI Director Marc Howard and as a General Project Coordinator. She plans to attend law school in the next few years and eventually work as a criminal defense attorney to fight on behalf of those who fall victim to the ordinary injustices of the criminal legal system.
