CRIMINAL LEGAL SYSTEM
DIVESTMENT

OFFICIALS WITHIN OUR GOVERNMENTAL SYSTEM WILL DEMONSTRATE

THEIR PURSUIT OF SOCIAL JUSTICE
WITHIN THE CRIMINAL LEGAL SYSTEM BY:

 

Making meaningful efforts to defund and abolish prisons and police (i.e. shifting public dollars away from criminalization)

 

Being dedicated to pursuing alternatives to the criminal and juvenile legal systems that are equitable for all people

Taking concrete actions to hold the police department/sheriff's office accountable

Specifically calling for immediate end to police brutality, especially against black people and other oppressed people

Reimagining public safety by championing/demanding investments in solutions to underlying issues (e.g., restorative justice, access to reentry services, housing, mental health and addiction recovery services, and health care)
