Michigan Justice Fund 2024-2026

Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan

Support for the Michigan Justice Fund, a collaborative philanthropic initiative designed to address issues of mass incarceration in Michigan. The Fund was launched in 2020 to advance equitable justice policy reform and to support transformational change taking place in communities throughout the state. The Fund invests in initiatives designed to promote and advance the prosperity and dignity of Michigan residents by stemming the flow of individuals into the youth and criminal legal systems, supporting the investment of public dollars to community-driven alternatives to incarceration and detention, and by ensuring those who are returning home after incarceration or detention receive the support they need to flourish.
