Securing equal justice, ending mass incarceration, and strengthening families and communities. Founded 1961.

We envision a society that respects the dignity of every single person. And we're working to realize it.

We work with others who share our vision to tackle the most pressing injustices of our day - from the causes and consequences of mass incarceration, racial disparities, and the loss of public trust in law enforcement, to the unmet needs of the vulnerable, the marginalized, and those harmed by crime and violence.
