We Believe that in order to influence a reduction in mass incarceration and recidivism here in Texas we must empower people with the tools to advocate for themselves while navigating their way through the criminal justice system and by joining collaborative partnerships with other organizations to invoke change in thinking, processing, and activation of individuals who are directly impacted by the judicial justice system.
