The Oregon Justice Resource Center is a legal services organization based in Oregon, founded in 2011 by Bobbin Singh and Erin McKee. It pursues civil rights advocacy and improved legal representation for underserved communities, particularly people living in poverty and communities of color, through client-centered direct services, advocacy, and collaboration with like-minded groups. The center operates a network of specialized projects, including the Oregon Innocence Project, Women’s Justice Project, Immigrant Rights Project, Civil Rights Project, and Youth Justice Project, each addressing distinct facets of the criminal justice system from wrongful convictions to diversion, reform, and outcomes for youth and immigrant clients. Its holistic approach combines casework, policy reform, public education, and training for future public interest lawyers, aiming to expand access to justice while promoting systemic reforms in Oregon’s criminal justice landscape.
