About NJS
Our key aim is to restore humanity to those affected by the criminal justice system, offering them a new way forward
Welcome to the National Justice Society (NJS), a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to fighting recidivism and fostering justice reform.
In our society, the criminal justice system has a troubling tendency to dehumanize the incarcerated population. It devours their individuality, replacing names with numbers, and brands them with a stigma that persists long after their release.
This ordeal often leads to a cycle of re-incarceration, contributing to the soaring recidivism rates in our country.
Here at NJS, we believe in a different approach. We question a system that robs someone of their humanity and yet expects them to reintegrate into society seamlessly.
To mitigate this issue, we work tirelessly to restore and nurture the humanity of those incarcerated, providing them with the tools to flourish as their true selves upon their release.
