Criminal Justice & Public Safety
Criminal Justice
A system that keeps communities safe while being fair, effective, and fiscally responsible.
The Problem
The U.S. incarcerates more people than any other nation — 2 million behind bars, with stark disparities by income and geography. Recidivism rates exceed 60%. Mass incarceration costs taxpayers $80B+ annually. Meanwhile, violent crime persists in underserved communities, and trust in law enforcement is fractured.
