REFORM Alliance
Description
REFORM is bringing together bipartisan experts, system leaders, advocates, and policymakers on common-sense solutions to transform probation and parole, dramatically reduce the number of people needlessly trapped in the criminal justice system and significantly increase the number of people moving from supervision to work and wellbeing. In October 2020, REFORM achieved a major legislative victory with the passage of AB 1950 in California, the most transformative probation bill in the country. REFORM has already been instrumental in getting similar bills introduced in Pennsylvania, Michigan, and Mississippi and is on the ground in key states to change laws and policies at the state level. At the same time, REFORM is amplifying the voices of people and families affected by probation and parole to change hearts and minds and build cultural momentum for reform nationwide.
