The Detroit Justice Center is a legal services organization based in Detroit, Michigan. It collaborates with communities to expand economic opportunities, transform the justice system, and promote equitable cities. The group argues that remedies for mass incarceration are essential to building cities that work for everyone. Its work blends community-driven legal advocacy with efforts to advance racial justice and economic equity, including direct services and innovative approaches to land use, housing, and employment. In 2022, Detroit Justice Center launched the Metro Detroit Restorative Justice Network to provide more options for families and survivors to find healing outside traditional courts and incarceration. The organization operates with a small-to-mid-sized staff and maintains an online presence at its Detroit-area site, detroitjustice.org.
