Alliance for Safety and Justice

Alliance for Safety and Justice (ASJ) is a national advocacy organization based in Oakland, California. The organization employs 13 individuals and generates an estimated $50 million in annual revenue. ASJ is dedicated to reforming ineffective criminal justice policies and advocating for solutions that promote public safety. The organization works to replace punitive measures with evidence-based alternatives that address the root causes of crime. ASJ represents the perspectives of diverse crime survivors and individuals with criminal records, recognizing their valuable insights as key stakeholders in public safety. ASJ actively collaborates with state leaders and community partners to advocate for policy changes that interrupt cycles of crime, reduce incarceration rates, advance racial justice, and create safer communities. Their policy work focuses on reducing reliance on incarceration and supports a range of "shared safety" reforms, including community-based violence prevention initiatives, public health interventions, programs that promote economic mobility, and trauma recovery services.
