MISSION

We are a group of system impacted advocates and researchers who work to cultivate justice, fairness, and accountability in Washington State’s criminal legal system through civic education and empowerment.

THE PROBLEM

Washington State’s criminal justice system discards lives, especially the lives of young Black and Indigenous People of Color, without a second look. Justice demands more.

OUR SOLUTION

Through research and civic education we advocate for evidence-based sentencing practices that recognize the harm inflicted on marginalized communities by outdated criminal justice policies. In our work we center the voices of those most impacted by the criminal legal system. Read more about our advocacy
