Criminal Justice
We strive to advance community safety and the values of fairness, effectiveness, and racial justice.
We Work In
America’s criminal justice system strips too many people of their jobs, families, health, and dignity. It puts people of color at risk, disproportionately harms low-income people, limits the potential of those caught in the system, and doesn’t give everyone the opportunities they need to get back on track. And it does all this at an enormous cost to taxpayers.

And it does all this at an enormous cost to taxpayers. Our work in criminal justice is about identifying, testing, and scaling policies that improve people’s lives.
