"We can't see you just in the court or when there's a high-profile case." Niko Quinn says what many feel but rarely get to say. Trust between prosecutors and communities has to be built — consistently. #CommunityTrust

When law enforcement starts serving power instead of people, history tells us what follows. June Third Thursday with Jason Kalish: "What You Do Matters: Lessons from the Holocaust." Free | June 18. 🔗 prosecutorsalliance.org/event/what-you-do-matters/

Restorative justice moves past the "good people / bad people" binary. Accountability without dehumanization. Safety built through truth, repair, and the belief that people can be more. #RestorativeJustice

"If I don't tell it, who else is going to tell it?" Niko Quinn is a survivor from Kansas City who chose to speak — for the next person who hasn't found their voice yet. Telling her story is what heals her. That's why Survivor Voices exists.

Prop 36 reclassified low-level drug and theft offenses as felonies — and the numbers reflect it. ~900 people sent to state prison. Jails up nearly 3,000. Fewer than 1 in 5 arrested on drug charges ordered to treatment. Fewer than 1 in 100 completed a program.

After a conviction, many survivors don't realize the legal process is far from over. The Post-Conviction Resource Center helps with that. Healing Justice's new online hub gives survivors and advocates clear information and direct advocate help for every stage of post-conviction activity.

Hennepin County has charged an ICE agent after investigators found his account of a shooting during Operation Metro Surge didn't match the evidence. The law applies to everyone with a badge. #RuleOfLaw

Safety and second chances go hand in hand. Every day, people return home ready to work, rebuild, and contribute — and the communities that welcome them back are stronger for it. #JusticeReform #CommunityTrust

When someone dies at the hands of law enforcement, prosecutors have a duty to investigate. Mary Moriarty and Keith Ellison are demanding evidence, asking hard questions, and refusing to let the federal government short-circuit the process. This is prosecution with integrity.

Arlington County just opened a soft interview room at the courthouse — couch, blankets, art on the walls — so survivors feel safe before they're asked to share something hard. Project Beloved's 150th room nationwide. www.arlnow.com/2026/03/20/s...
