"Tamisha Civil is a community advocate with over 10 years of experience working in our criminal justice system. She’s running for Governor’s Council because she has the right experience and vision to make our justice system work fairly for everyone in our Commonwealth.
Tamisha Civil
Tamisha is the proud daughter of Haitian immigrants who came to Massachusetts for better opportunities. Her parents worked hard to provide a better future for their children, a work ethic they inspired in her. Thanks to her family and her passion, Tamisha became the first person in her family to graduate from college. She obtained a Master’s degree in Criminal Justice and Leadership from Northeastern University.Tamisha’s life changed when her cousin was falsely imprisoned for murder. She had to watch helplessly as the person who helped raise her sat behind bars, unable to attend even his own mother’s funeral. Tamisha’s cousin sat behind bars for 27 years, losing his entire adolescence and early adulthood. After years of justice denied, her cousin was exonerated in 2021.What happened to Tamisha’s family is far too common. Too many families are torn apart by miscarriages of justice — whether that means overincarceration of minority communities, the criminalization of mental health & drug use, or our inadequate response to sexual violence."
