Power Our Work This Colorado Gives Day!

Our state faces growing pressure to expand incarceration and impose harsher criminal penalties — committing hundreds of millions of public dollars to punishment instead of investing in what our communities actually need.

CCJRC is fighting for a different future.

For more than 25 years, we've organized alongside people directly impacted by the criminal legal system to reduce incarceration, protect civil rights, and build safer, healthier communities.

This year, we've fought prison expansion, challenged extreme sentencing laws, and advocated for investments in community-based safety solutions. But the fight is far from over.

Help Us Raise $35,000 This Colorado Gives Day!

Your gift supports:

• Fighting prison expansion and advocating for investments in housing, healthcare, treatment, and reentry.

• Organizing directly impacted communities to lead the fight for change.

• Public education and advocacy to challenge fear-based narratives about crime and punishment.

• Policy reform to reduce incarceration, protect civil rights, and hold decision-makers accountable.

Colorado Gives Day is December 8, but you can give today! Every donation made through December 8 counts toward Colorado Gives Day and helps CCJRC qualify for a share of the $1 million-plus statewide Incentive Fund. New monthly gifts may also qualify for matching funds.

Colorado doesn't need more prisons. It needs more possibilities.

Help us reach our $35,000 goal and power the fight for justice in 2027.

Pre-schedule your gift today!
