THE ORGANIZATION The Center for Justice Innovation is a nonprofit organization dedicated to advancing community safety and racial justice.

Since 1996, we’ve worked alongside communities, courts, and those most directly affected by the justice system to build stronger, healthier, and more equitable neighborhoods.

With a team of over 900 staff and an annual budget of $130 million, the Center carries out its mission through three core strategies :

• Operating Programs  that pilot new ideas and address local challenges; Conducting original research to evaluate what works—and what doesn’t; and Providing expert assistance and policy guidance to reformers across the country and beyond.
• Backed by decades of on-the-ground experience and nationally recognized expertise, we bring innovative, practical, and lasting solutions to justice systems nationwide.

• THE OPPORTUNITY The Red Hook Community Justice Center is the nation’s first multi-jurisdictional community court, hearing criminal, housing, and family court matters under one roof with a single judge.
• The court takes a holistic and problem-solving approach to resolving cases, connecting individuals with resources and opportunities instead of relying on punitive responses such as incarceration or eviction.
• A wide array of onsite programs and initiatives are available to all litigants, as well as to the community at large.
