The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights — Federal Criminal Justice Reform Advocacy (February 2020)

[Criminal Justice Reform] Grant investigator: Chloe Cockburn This page was reviewed but not written by the grant investigator. Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights staff also reviewed this page prior to publication. Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $200,000 to the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights (LCCHR) for advocacy on federal criminal justice reform policy. LCCHR works with over 200 civil-rights-oriented groups to eliminate social and economic inequality in the United States, and recently co-published a comprehensive policy platform that will guide its future criminal justice reform work. This funding will pay for staff time and overhead related to criminal justice reform advocacy. This follows our December 2018 support and falls within our focus area of criminal justice reform.
