Georgia Justice Project

Mission

Georgia Justice Project (GJP) strengthens our community by demonstrating a better way to represent and support individuals in the criminal justice system and reduce barriers to reentry. 

Who We Are

GJP's work touches every aspect of the criminal justice continuum with three goals: 

1) Reducing the number of Georgians who are under correctional control

2) Reducing reentry barriers for the formerly incarcerated and justice-involved

3) Improving community safety through innovative partnerships with systems stakeholders.

GJP's approach is to simultaneously work on three distinct levels:

Our innovative, holistic approach helps end the cycle of intergenerational poverty, crime, and increases the wealth building potential of underserved communities.
