Administration of Justice

Improving the administration of justice through research education and direct services.

The Campaign for the Fair Sentencing of Youth is a national nonprofit working for racial justice by leading the movement to abolish juvenile life without parole. The U.S. is the only country in the world that sentences children to life in prison; Black children are given JLWOP at a rate 10x per capita compared to white children. We envision a society that respects the dignity and human rights of children through a justice system that considers the child’s age and unique ability to change; provides youth with opportunities to return to community; and bans life without parole for people under age 18. We center the experience of those most directly impacted, through our Incarcerated Children’s Advocacy Network (ICAN), a first of its kind network of individuals who were sentenced to JLWOP and are now home. Together with ICAN, we support corporations to get involved in our movement through direct engagements, public education and proximity to people who have survived JLWOP.
