CEPP is a nonprofit organization with longstanding experience in the field of criminal justice. For over 40 years, CEPP has worked collaboratively with justice system professionals and their partners to improve their justice systems and facilitate equitable, systemic, and sustainable change. We believe our criminal legal systems should work for all, and that all justice should be community justice. CEPP works on projects across the spectrum of the criminal legal system – from pretrial to sentencing, as well as corrections, probation, parole, and reintegration. Our projects focus on changing the status quo and reimagining justice solutions. We work to reduce reliance on incarceration, strengthen communities, and improve outcomes for everyone impacted by the criminal legal system. We bring expertise in group facilitation and collaboration, training and education, change management, research and national best practices, and practical working knowledge and skills in implementing evidence-based practices and sustainable programs. Over CEPP’s long history, we have worked in every state in the country, at local, state, and federal levels. When engaged with a jurisdiction, we provide structure to a deliberative process and bring lessons from empirical research and practical experience. CEPP does not dictate the solutions, but rather assists jurisdictions with crafting their own policies and practices.
