Our Impact

We advance policies that transform our punitive system into one that ensures accountability, racial equity, and healing. By centering these values, we’re creating a model of community safety with better outcomes for both survivors of violence and people who have caused harm.

We’re guided by a shrink-and-invest approach to reform: The policies we advance reduce mass incarceration. At the same time, our work has invested nearly $500 million into services for crime survivors, treatment, and restoration.
