Build the justice system we all need - transparent, accountable, evidence-based, and accessible to everyone.
Transform criminal justice, victim support, and digital identity protection through:
- Evidence-Based Reform: Data-driven policy and practice
- Victim-Centered Services: 24/7 AI-powered crisis support
- Preemptive Protection: Detect and prevent harm before it escalates
- Digital Rights: Protect identity and privacy across all platforms
- Open Collaboration: Community-driven innovation and improvement
Every year:
- Millions experience crime victimization without adequate support
- Thousands suffer identity theft and deepfake exploitation
- Billions in economic harm from cybercrime
- Countless opportunities missed for early intervention and prevention
We can do better. This open-source framework provides the tools, knowledge, and community to transform justice from reactive punishment to proactive protection and support.
The Justice System is a comprehensive open-source framework combining cutting-edge technology (AI, blockchain, biometrics) with evidence-based justice system improvements. It's designed for researchers, practitioners, developers, advocates, and anyone passionate about justice reform.
This repository is organized using a 16-category taxonomy (00-15) that mirrors the actual U.S. criminal justice system flow, from initial law enforcement contact through reentry and support services.
