JustLeadershipUSA amplifies the power of directly impacted people by investing, educating, empowering, and elevating their voices, so they have the tools and resources to self-organize and advocate for themselves, their families, and their communities.

Together we build an equitable, fair, and just U.S.

Our Reach

Our Leadership Map shows how our national, directly impacted leaders have influenced decarceration and criminal justice reform efforts since 2015.

*Note: Without Census information or self-reporting from states, jail detainee figures are not readily available after 2016, as individuals cycle in and out of jails more frequently.

Ways to Support

At JustLeadershipUSA, we know that the people closest to the problem are also closest to the solution, but often farthest away from resources and power. That’s why we are on a mission to educate, elevate, and empower the people and communities most impacted by systemic injustice to drive meaningful and lasting policy reform.

But we can’t do it alone.
