Partnership for Safety & Justice

Mission

Partnership for Safety & Justice is transforming society’s response to crime through innovative solutions that ensure accountability, equity, and healing.

Bottom Line for Portland

In the last few years alone, we’ve worked in coalition to prevent the opening of two prisons; limited unnecessary police stops and arrests in Portland; and redirected over $180 million of prison spending into victim services, addiction treatment, and other community safety programs across Oregon.

Quote

“Partnership for Safety & Justice helped me turn the overwhelming grief of my son’s incarceration into active and focused energy aiming at changing Oregon’s laws for the better.”

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion

Partnership for Safety & Justice is led by the people most harmed and least helped by our criminal justice system. We are survivors of violence, people convicted of crime, and the families of both. Together, we advocate for reforms that advance equity and healing for Black, Indigenous, people of color, LGBTQ+ people, women, and other communities disproportionately impacted by violence and mass incarceration.
