Katarina Sayally

Advocacy & Organizing Manager

Why do you do what you do?

My lived experience fuels my commitment to creating space where system-impacted youth and families can dream, heal, and lead. I believe that true justice means centering dignity and humanity.

As Advocacy and Organizing Manager

I lead local campaigns and statewide legislative efforts that advance dignity, equity, and opportunity for people impacted by the carceral system and their families. I work to uplift youth leadership, build coalitions with directly impacted communities, and drive legislation that transforms systems. Through relationship building, storytelling, and strategic advocacy, I aim to ensure that every effort reflects the voices and visions of those most impacted. 

When I’m not at CW,  I enjoy gardening, camping, and fishing with my family.
