Sentencing Reform Advocacy Groups

Sentencing Reform Advocacy Groups are organizations dedicated to changing criminal justice policies related to how offenders are sentenced. They work to promote fairer, more effective, and equitable sentencing practices by reducing harsh penalties like mandatory minimums, addressing disparities, and focusing on rehabilitation. These groups aim to create a justice system that balances accountability with fairness, ultimately reducing mass incarceration and improving social outcomes. They often conduct research, advocate for legislative changes, and raise public awareness about issues in sentencing policies.
