This week, we hear how Melissa Fitzgerald went from playing Carol on The West Wing to advocating for veterans and criminal justice reform.   Melissa served as Senior Director of Justice For Vets and is now expanding her profile to lead the soon to be launched, ADVANCING JUSTICE: A global initiative to lead justice reform. Justice for Vets leads the national effort to put a veterans treatment court within reach of every veteran in need.

The New Activist is a joint production of The RELEVANT Podcast Network and International Justice Mission.
