Just Reinvest NSW

Just Reinvest NSW (JRNSW) supports Aboriginal communities to develop their own solutions for change, making them safer and more just. Our goal is to reduce Aboriginal Peoples interactions with the criminal justice system. We do this by creating stronger and safer futures through both community-led initiatives and state-wide policy and legislative reform, redirecting funds away from systems that harm people, towards communities with high rates of contact with the justice system. We work alongside Aboriginal communities to support place-based, community-led and data driven approaches to inform local solutions, such as devising local justice circuit-breakers. Our place-based approach feeds into our broader policy and advocacy work to create levers for change. JRNSW brings together Aboriginal communities, government, agencies, philanthropic and private sector partners across political and cultural spectrums to leverage the justice reinvestment approach
