Justice Assistance is a Rhode Island–based nonprofit organization that has operated since 1978 to provide services within the criminal justice system. Located in Cranston, the group began by addressing employment barriers faced by Rhode Island’s adult ex-offenders and has since developed into a multi-services charitable organization active in various aspects of the justice system. Serving individuals impacted by the criminal legal process, it offers programs and partnerships aimed at improving outcomes for this population within the health and human services landscape. The organization is organized as a charitable entity under IRS 501(c)(3) status and functions within the broader field of criminal justice and social services. In May 2026 the organization announced a collaboration with CareLink, Inc. to offer free dental services to people affected by the criminal legal system during the summer, signaling an ongoing engagement with practical supports for its target community.
