Our Vision

We believe that the history of racial inequity, in our state and in this nation, informs nearly every aspect of our lives. We are committed to working towards anti-racist policies and legislation that result in meaningful change for people impacted by the criminal legal system

 

Nearly one-third of American adults struggle to find a home due to housing discrimination based on past arrest or conviction records
