Reducing Mass Incarceration

Between 2018 and 2023, we reduced the number of years of incarceration imposed by an estimated 40,000 years (as compared to the 2014-2017 timespan).
Reducing mass incarceration can make our city safer.

Public Accountability

We investigate not only our city’s criminal justice system and all those in positions of public trust, but also our own past actions.
Accountability leads to justice.

VICTIMS & WITNESSES

Empowerment starts with understanding the system.

While each criminal case is different, most follow a common path. Our Victim & Witness Coordinators can help guide you and your family through every step.
