Julia Horan

Julia joined the GreenLight Boston team in November 2026 as an Operations Coordinator, bringing both passion and experience with nonprofit operations, community engagement, and program coordination.

Most recently, Julia interned with the Massachusetts Office of the Attorney General’s Children’s Justice Unit, where she supported legal research and policy initiatives relating to juvenile education, justice, welfare, immigration, and healthcare. Prior to the AGO, Julia worked as an intern with Massachusetts Children’s Alliance, a nonprofit organization specializing in leading-edge treatments and services for survivors of child abuse. There, she gained experience with inter-agency communication, grants management, and supporting society’s most vulnerable populations. Julia also brings a strong connection to community stemming from her past direct service youth work experience as a Program Manager with The DREAM Program, an AmeriCorps organization that provides high-quality childcare and mentoring at no cost to families. Through these experiences, she developed a passion for mission-driven work and supporting organizations making a meaningful impact in their communities.

Born and raised in Vermont, Julia moved to Boston in 2021 to pursue her Bachelors of Science in Criminal Justice and Psychology from Northeastern University.

In her free time, Julia enjoys thrift shopping, watching reality TV, and enjoying outdoor sports in the winter like skiing and skating.
