Staten Island Justice Center

The Supervised Release Program reduces the number of people held in jail simply because they cannot afford bail.
The Driver Accountability Program is an innovative response to driving-related offenses that seeks to improve traffic safety and increase accountability among dangerous drivers.
Youth can be transformative leaders, addressing inequity in their communities and the factors that lead to youth involvement in the criminal legal system.
Our participants sometimes volunteer at the Skyline Garden, which offers youth a chance to learn about gardening and taste the fruits (and vegetables!) of their labors.
The Justice Center, partnering with H.E.A.L.T.H. for Youth and the Staten Island Partnership for Community Wellness, holds a drug awareness workshop for local youth.
The project is funded by the City of New York, the New York City Department of Probation, and City Council Member Debi Rose. A variety of government and private funders also provide ongoing support.
