ZENO TEMPLE
My Story
Zeno Temple is a Juris Doctor candidate at Western New England University School of Law and the founder of The Just Us Movement, a nonprofit organization advancing equity through community education, legal advocacy, and leadership development. His work centers on expanding access to justice and building pathways that connect historically under-resourced communities to legal resources and civic engagement opportunities.
Zeno has served in multiple legal and public service roles, including with the Connecticut Commission on Human Rights and Opportunities, Connecticut’s Department for Consumer Protection and the Hampden County District Attorney’s Office. He is also an active member of multiple associations and organizations serving the interests of the people across the nation.
"I founded the Just Us Movement because I believe that the work of achieving justice and equity begins with “just us”—with everyday people stepping up to challenge barriers and ignite positive change. Our name is a daily reminder that we must take action ourselves if we want to see lasting, meaningful progress in our communities."
