Founder
DEVON MCNEIL
Skilled organizer, orator, and self-published author, Devon McNeil is passionate about returning to the neighborhoods where he grew up to make a positive impact on Boston’s youth. Since returning to his community after 20 years incarcerated, Devon has focused on furthering his education through MyTERN, cultivating his own performance work and spoken word through his brand name and book title “The Streets Lied,” and running his own non-profit organization, called Not On My Watch Mentoring, Inc. NOMW is a mentoring program providing guidance and fostering a sense of direction for Boston youth at risk of falling victim to an increasingly inequitable criminal legal system in Massachusetts. In his work, Devon is committed to continuing to advocate for justice and community repair.
