About Justice Counts
What We Do
Policymakers are often forced to make critical decisions about the safety of their constituents using limited or stale criminal justice data.
Facing significant challenges and fiscal pressures, our leaders need up-to-date information from across the justice system, presented in a digestible way.
Justice Counts is a national, consensus-building initiative designed to help policymakers make better decisions with criminal justice data that’s more timely, less disjointed, and as useful as possible.
Our unparalleled coalition of partners and advisors is urging leaders across the country to measure what matters and meet this moment with data-driven decisions.
