Program Intern

Jordynn Jenkins is a senior at Georgetown University studying government and entrepreneurship. She’s from Cincinnati, Ohio, where local cases of police brutality and wrongful convictions sparked her interest in criminal justice reform. Jordynn has since been involved with various advocacy and outreach projects in hopes of humanizing individuals who are incarcerated. As part of the the 2023 cohort of Making An Exoneree, Jordynn and her teammates reinvestigated the wrongful conviction of Billy Pennington and have advocated for his freedom. In her free time, she loves spending time with her six younger siblings, playing basketball, collecting vinyl records, and cooking.
