Atley Chock

Atley Chock will be coordinating the technical assistance program for the Community Justice Network for Youth. He will be creating a database of organizations in the network and in the process, will look for opportunities for organizations to better support each other and create a stronger, more united juvenile justice movement. He will also be involved in coordinating the follow-up meetings to the regional meetings. Before coming to CJNY, he worked as a youth organizer with Californians for Justice, organizing low-income youth of color around racial justice issues in education. After leaving CFJ, he has worked with many community-based groups including the API Coalition Against War, CJWP, Education Not Incarceration, and initiated the newly formed Bay Area Network Against Police Brutality. He graduated from Oberlin College in Ohio with a degree in Biology. Though biology might not be a typical major for social justice activists, it was through campus activism for Asian American and Ethnic Studies where he gained his passion and motivation to work for social justice and empower low-income communities of color.
