Stephanie JettStephanie Jett (she/her/hers) works as an Assistant Professor of Psychology at Georgia College & State University. She moved to Milledgeville in August of 2017. Her work with Milly Free Fridge was inspired by her strong belief that food is a right, not a privilege and that community should support community. Growing up in a Midwestern (Mom) and Southern (Dad) household, food was comfort, love, and home. Helping to feed people is a way for her to bring a bit of that love, care, and comfort to her neighbors.
