DETROIT (AP) More than $2 million is being awarded to a dozen organizations in Michigan that work to address inequities in the state’s criminal justice system.
The grants are through the Michigan Justice Fund which aims is to help stem the flow of people going through the criminal justice system, support the investment of public dollars to community-driven alternatives to incarceration, and ensure that those returning home receive support.
The fund is made up of 14 national and local foundations and is administered by the Community Foundation for Southeast Michigan.
Among those receiving grants is the Michigan League for Public Policy which will get $400,000 to coordinate collaborative criminal legal reform efforts focused on racial equity and representation of justice-impacted people through the Michigan Collaborative to End Mass Incarceration. ....
