CJCJ provides Direct Services to youth and adults across the country that are facing or transitioning from incarceration. CJCJ has established model programs that demonstrate how alternatives to incarceration can be successful, not only in reducing overburdened jail populations, but also in reducing recidivism rates.

We have been serving the criminal and juvenile justice populations for over fifteen years, with offices in San Francisco, Oakland, CA and the District of Columbia.
