About Jake Bissaillon
I’m a public servant, attorney, and nonprofit executive committed to making our state and its systems fairer, more accessible, and more effective. As CEO of Justice Assistance and as a Rhode Island State Senator, I focus on practical reforms that expand opportunity and build hope — from criminal justice and behavioral health to housing and workforce development.I am passionate about this work and believe deeply in my approach to it, which is rooted in listening, learning, and then often times building real world solutions from divergent voices. That\'s because I believe lasting progress only happens when there is lasting, widespread buy-in.
