About us
The Brennan Center for Justice at NYU School of Law is a nonpartisan law and policy institute that works to reform, revitalize – and when necessary, defend – our country's systems of democracy and justice. At this critical moment, the Brennan Center is dedicated to protecting the rule of law and the values of Constitutional democracy. We focus on voting rights, campaign finance reform, ending mass incarceration, and preserving our liberties while also maintaining our national security. Part think tank, part advocacy group, part cutting-edge communications hub, we start with rigorous research. We craft innovative policies. And we fight for them – in Congress and the states, the courts, and in the court of public opinion.

The problems plaguing Rikers Island are complex. They will not be fixed overnight. Yet some innovative programs in prisons and jails across the country could serve as a helpful blueprint as the NYC jail remediation manager, DOC, and other experts work to improve conditions on Rikers Island. Our team at the Brennan Center for Justice recently published a report detailing the impact of these policies across the country. Thank you to Vital City for highlighting how some of these practices can be implemented in NYC jails.
