Juliette Bussière Laforest-Courtois (Cap-Français, Saint-Domingue (later Haiti) 1789 – 24 December 1853), was a Haitian teacher and journalist.
She co-founded and managed the first school in Haiti opened to girls (1818–1828) and co-managed the paper La Feuille du Commerce.
No other woman would work as a journalist in Haiti until Anna Augustin's founding of "Fémina" in 1923.
The paper voiced the opposition against president Jean-Pierre Boyer and later emperor Faustin Soulouque.
Laforest-Courtois would subsequently assume complete leadership of the daily after her husband's passing in and manage it for a decade until her death in 1853.
