Join us ahead of the City Council Criminal Justice Committee's Preliminary Budget hearing to call for a just budget - one that shifts resources from the bloated Department of Correction to urgent community investments.
New York City runs the nation's most expensive jail system, with the worst results. Meanwhile, crucial community needs - like housing, healthcare, education, and employment go unmet. The result is a humanitarian crisis in our jails and on our streets. Elected leaders must utilize this year's budget process to correct this injustice.
Read more about DOC's budget, and how it can be reinvested in our communities.
