Tools to Promote Safer Communities

Since the 1990s, Mannix has been advancing the policies that created this landscape for us. But it’s a third of a century later, and we’ve learned a thing or two.

Safety & Justice Oregon, Latino Network, APANO, Coalition of Communities of Color, East County Rising, and Unite Oregon developed these Eight Steps to Justice: How DAs can transform justice in our communities and across the state.

Partnership for Safety & Justice continues to press for the second-look hearings to extend to all youths sentenced on Measure 11 offenses.

The upcoming May primary election will have a significant direct impact on Oregonians.

The dynamics of domestic violence make it clear why violence against women is a primary cause of homelessness.

We need to confront the false choice between meeting the needs of crime victims and reforming failed criminal justice and corrections policies.

The policy changes that reduce prison expansion are critical, but without investing in our local public safety infrastructure, we will not actually be strengthening Oregon’s approach to crime and accountability in sustainable ways.
