Founded by and for people with lived experience in the criminal justice system, corrections, and poverty, we understand the unique needs of the justice-impacted population. Our work embodies a commitment to reducing racial inequalities and eliminating disproportionate minority contact and confinement within the criminal justice system. As we grow, we continue to execute strategies that expand our mission of reducing racial disparities, both in our services and within our own organizational practices regarding diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).
