Mission
Clement's mission wit JustFix.nyc has a mission of building data-driven tools for both individual tenants and advocates fighting displacement currently focused on New York City. JustFix aims to have safe, equitable, and healthy housing in coordination with other housing justice efforts. In support of the housing justice movement, JustFix’s team looks at technology and data as a tool in the toolkit of the housing justice movement rather than viewing technology as a silver bullet.

Previously, Georges was a Fellow with Blue Ridge Labs at the Robin Hood Foundation and a Product Manager at General Assembly, leading the expansion of GA’s Business programs around the world. Today, in addition to JustFix.nyc, he is also the co-founder of UniFi Scholars which seeks to bridge the socioeconomic divide in the college application process.
