Rikers Island must close. That’s why a renewed Lippman Commission—bringing together leaders from across the city—is more urgent than ever.

A source of beauty and hope and an instrument of change, art holds a mirror up to our society, casting light on injustice while bringing a better world into view.

Domestic violence goes to the heart of the challenge of building safe and just communities, and demands that we listen deeply to the needs of survivors and others who have experienced harm; that we involve the community intimately in decisions about safety and accountability. This Domestic Violence Awareness Month, learn how we at the Center for Justice Innovation put these ideas into action.

We are excited to announce that the Center for Justice Innovation has received an $8 million grant from philanthropist MacKenzie Scott—the largest single gift in our history!
