After 18 years at the DOJ, Stacey Young bailed at Trump 2.0’s start—because who likes a workplace where advocating for equality turns you into the office snitch target? She founded DOJ GEN, pushing for paid parental leave and tackling pay gaps, but after "some people are working on résumés for the first time in decades," she shut it down and launched Justice Connection. Now she’s connecting nervous ex-DOJ kids with alumni lawyers and mental health pros amid a mass post-Trump DOJ dump. Young says it's been a "devastating seven months" watching former colleagues endure "cruel and senseless treatment" by their own government.
