Program

Criminal Justice

Our Criminal Justice program provides strategic information and research training to prison activists, policy advocates and community organizers, enabling groups to mount effective campaigns, run efficient organizations and encourage public debate.

Strategic information is vital in the struggle to stop U.S. dependence on incarceration and criminalization of whole segments of society. We have become a recognized leader and expert in the strategic information field, evidenced by our participation in major criminal justice initiatives like Critical Resistance: Beyond the Prison Industrial Complex, and our articles published in the San Francisco Chronicle and ColorLines Magazine. We have trained prison activists in research-for-action, provided information and analysis for campaign strategizing, monitored news coverage of prison and police brutality issues, and participated in the development of coalitions dedicated to halting the enormous growth of the prison industrial complex in the U.S.
