Vision
We envision a society where police departments no longer disproportionately kill Black, indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC), mirror the communities they serve, promote the safety and well-being of all people, and responsibly impact city budgets. We work to elect reform minded decision makers to our legislative bodies and executive seats so that all people will feel safe when interacting with law enforcement officers.
What We DoJustice Through Police Reform is a federal political action committee. We recruit and train the strongest candidates, coordinate volunteer opportunities, and turn out the vote.

JTPR builds and wields power in ways that individuals can’t. Our efforts provide targeted support for candidates who fundamentally believe the way we police in America has to change. To create this change, we need the collective constituent power that comes with working together. When we work together, we build political power that can be unleashed at key moments to have an undeniable impact. Without a doubt, this impact will create the change we so desperately need.
