Look 2 Justice
2023-25 Award - Systems & Policy Change - $125,000 per year
By utilizing tactics that center the voices and experiences of those most directly impacted by the criminal legal system, Look2Justice (L2J) sought to expand its then-current network of 400+ organizers to at least 1,200 organizers over the next years to reach 10% of the incarcerated population across Washington state and collaborate toward advancing policies to transform the state's criminal legal system. This proposal included civic education and empowerment, continuous communications with people who were incarcerated around relevant legislation and court decisions, educational workshops for legislators, prosecutors, judges, and more.
