What
We Do
Justice 4 Housing (J4H) is a grassroots organization that provides housing and family reunification for Justice-Impacted Individuals (JIIs) through policy, advocacy and service.
We believe in a Housing First model because a safe and stable home is crucial for a successful reentry.
WE ARE
A People-Led organization, founded by Formerly Incarcerated People (FIP), for FIP.
WE EMPOWER
Justice-Impacted Individuals (JIIs) to overcome housing discrimination and raise their voices against oppressive systems.
WE ENSURE
Stable housing that addresses the root causes of justice-involved homelessness with holistic and community-based solutions.
WE EDUCATE
Communities, organizations, Public Housing Authorities, governments and individuals on the rights of FIP.
Justice-Impacted Individuals (JIIs) are those affected by interactions with the criminal justice system. Such encounters, whether arrests, incarceration, dropped charges, or other experiences, can significantly limit opportunities for individuals, particularly in securing housing.
WE ARE PART OF A MOVEMENT TO END INCARCERATION OF WOMEN & GIRLS
