About Molly Coleman
Molly Coleman was born and raised in Saint Paul and attended Saint Paul Public Schools. She graduated from Saint Paul Central High School. After spending time out-of-state to attend college, work in public schools in New York City providing student support services, and attend law school, Coleman returned to Saint Paul, first as a renter downtown and now as a homeowner in Hamline-Midway, where she lives with her husband and son. For the last seven years, Coleman has been running the People’s Parity Project, a national legal advocacy organization that she co-founded in 2018 which aims to build a legal system that works for working people and a democracy that is truly governed by the people. She wants to build an economy—and a democracy—that works for working people, especially at the local level. Coleman loves this city and believes she has an obligation to do the hard work of building a more just, more equitable, more inclusive community here in Saint Paul in order to restore faith in the idea that it is possible to collectively build a better world.
