About the Justice Program

The DR Fund’s Justice program supports efforts to enact more humane policies within detention systems and to dramatically reduce the number of people incarcerated. We invest in organizations developing  more just and equitable alternatives that provide healing to crime victims’ families and foster truly safer communities. We are especially interested in grassroots organizing, restoring voting rights, and effective advocacy efforts to advance de-carceration policies on a national scale.

Never forget that justice is what love looks like in public.
