Brooklyn Community Bail Fund

The Brooklyn Community Bail Fund is a nonprofit organization that provides financial support to help individuals accused of crimes secure their release from jail before trial. Its goal is to reduce the inequalities of the criminal justice system by ensuring that people are not detained simply because they cannot afford bail, which can harm their lives and perpetuate racial disparities. By paying bail for those in need, the fund promotes fairer treatment, fewer pretrial incarcerations, and greater community stability, focusing on equitable justice and supporting individuals in maintaining their daily responsibilities while awaiting trial.
