The Texas Center for Justice and Equity is a public policy office based in Austin, Texas, focused on reducing mass incarceration and promoting safer communities. It pursues a three-pronged approach: preventing people from entering the justice system, reducing the number of individuals under correctional control, and shifting investment toward community wellness to address underlying needs such as substance use, mental health, and trauma. The organization aims to deflect individuals from the pipeline, shrink the current scale of the system, and support community-based solutions outside the justice framework. Its work targets policy and coalition-building to advance these objectives within Texas. The center operates with a small staff and maintains a presence online at its website.
