   The Just Trust

   Sep 2021 — Present

   The Just Trust is 100% dedicated to scaling, aligning, and deploying resources across the criminal justice reform advocacy ecosystem. Through an initial investment of $350 million, our team of experts is here to power the hard work of advocates - state by state and across the country - as well as help build a big tent of creative alliances, level-up flexible (c)3 and (c)4 resources, center the work of directly-impacted individuals, and sustain the calls for durable reform among the mainstream. We do this in service of a smaller, more humane, more dignified engine of justice and safety.
