The Texas Center for Justice and Equity (TCJE) is a non-profit organization based in Austin, TX, dedicated to advocating for safe, healthy, and just communities. They work at the State Capitol and in counties throughout Texas to end mass incarceration, shift funding towards community supports, and reduce racial inequities in the criminal punishment system.
TCJE focuses on various policy areas, including youth justice, women's justice, alternatives to incarceration, conditions of confinement, parole, and reentry. They also collaborate with system-impacted coalitions and have a Statewide Leadership Council (SLC) composed of directly impacted Texans who fight for a future where everyone has a second chance to succeed. Through their advocacy, TCJE aims to create a more equitable and compassionate criminal justice system in Texas.
