Mission

The National Institute for Criminal Justice Reform (NICJR) works to transform the juvenile and criminal justice systems. We strive to reduce incarceration, improve the outcomes of system-involved youth and adults, and increase the capacity of organizations that serve currently and formerly incarcerated individuals.

NICJR is a non-profit organization providing technical assistance, consulting, research, and organizational development in the fields of juvenile and criminal justice, youth development, and violence prevention. NICJR provides consultation, program development technical assistance and training to an array of organizations; including government agencies, non-profit organizations, and philanthropic foundations.
