Jasmine Gilstrap
​
Co-Founder and
​Executive Director

Jasmine co-founded the Lion’s Pride program with Sean Healy in 2017 and helped to transition the program into a nonprofit in September 2019. Jasmine previously served as a mathematics instructor at Baker College Prep where she advised two groups of young women and the Baker French Club. Jasmine was a 2017-18 Chicago Sky High School Educator of the Year nominee and a recipient of the Educator of Semester Award at Baker College Prep in 2020. 

Prior to teaching at Baker, Jasmine served as a Citizen Schools Teaching Fellow and Regional Program Lead in Chicago where her passion for restorative justice and leveraging student strengths was nurtured. Jasmine continues to use restorative justice practices to guide her instructional practices and include student voice in all her work as a means to authentically and holistically educate and empower the students she serves.
