SOCIAL PROGRAM COORDINATOR
By official title, Zoe Young is TPP’s Social Program Coordinator. In reality, she is TPP’s everything! From beloved circle keeper to administrative wizard to compassionate caseworker and counselor, Zoe does it all, and does so with the utmost humility and grace. She describes her role at TPP best, sharing “I always say it’s my job to find and create safe spaces to uplift the voices of lived experience.”
Zoe first became acquainted with RJ and the TPP team in 2020 through her internship with Roxbury Court’s CHOICE Program, a program aimed at reducing recidivism among emerging adults on probation. In the spring of 2020, Zoe graduated with her Master of Science in Criminology and Criminal Justice from Northeastern University and dove head first into working with TPP full time.
Zoe has been with TPP since, and is the glue that holds the organization together. Her presence on the team has been an absolute gift, as she has been instrumental in expanding TPP’s vision and fostering vital community partnerships. She brings an incredible balance of warmth and work ethic that allows her to build lasting bonds while also keeping the team focused and efficient (which we definitely need!). Zoe has a beautiful ability to remain calm amidst chaos, and provides constant support and affirmation to program participants, coworkers, and community partners alike. Zoe is especially adored by our young people, who flock to her bubbly personality, sage advice, and lovable Canadian accent. She is a woman of her word and shows her commitment to the work through her unwavering consistency and reliability, a daily reminder to us all of what it means to truly show up for others and be in community.
