"The program has been profoundly beneficial and has greatly enhanced my office’s ability to provide holistic defense services. In short, these advocates have been game changers.”

Partners for Justice is a national organization, but our work is hyper-local.
Though we operate in jurisdictions around the nation, our capacity-building support is tailored to local communities and PFJ Advocates are deeply integrated into local public defender offices.
This gives us a different kind of relationship with our partner public defenders than many national programs. We collaborate closely with defenders to ensure our partnership is successful and that it meets the office’s goals for expanded client service.

If you are a public defender or defense agency interested in doing more for your clients, and ready to commit to fighting for resources to offer clients wraparound support long-term, please reach out to us here.
