Our areas of focus include:

● Court Services and Decarceration
● Jail and Prison Services
● Reentry and Workforce Services
● Housing Opportunities
● Children, Youth, and Family Services


Our programs support children, youth, and families with incarcerated loved ones, young adults and LGBTQIA+ people interacting with the criminal legal system, and incarcerated people – including parents, people with HIV, and older adults preparing to return home. In all that we do, we offer opportunities for people to repair and heal from harm, restore their lives, and thrive.

At Courts and Precincts

We offer alternatives to incarceration, diversion programs, and advocacy at court for people who have been arrested.
