Alliance for Safety and Justice
Alliance for Safety and Justice (ASJ) is a national advocacy organization that aims to replace ineffective criminal justice policies with what works to keep people safe. We represent diverse crime survivors as well as people living with old records as key public safety stakeholders. ASJ brings our members together with state leaders and coalition partners to win reforms that stop cycles of crime, reduce costly incarceration, advance racial justice and make communities safer. We advance policy to reduce incarceration and we support a range of “shared safety” reforms, including community-based violence prevention, public health, economic mobility, and trauma recovery programs.
