Our Criminal Justice and Safety areas of focus. We work to: 

  • Reduce the number of youth in detention facilities/youth prisons in Harris County & the state of Texas by collaborating to dismantle the school-to-prison pipeline through advocacy against exclusionary discipline practices and police presence and practices on K-12 campuses.  
  • Improve infrastructure to establish safe and environmentally sound neighborhood conditions in target communities.
