Fair and Just Prosecution
FJP brings together elected local District Attorneys as part of a network of leaders committed to promoting a more just system.
Founded in 2017, Fair and Just Prosecution is changing the justice system from within by supporting and inspiring locally elected district attorneys (DAs) committed to fairness, equity, compassion, and fiscal responsibility. These elected leaders – and the vision they share for safer and healthier communities – are supported by FJP’s network through ongoing information sharing, research and resource materials, opportunities for on-the-ground learning, in-person convenings, technical assistance, and access to national experts. DAs are the most powerful actors in the criminal legal system, exercising tremendous control over who comes into the system, what charges they face, and the trajectory of their case. From Chicago to Los Angeles and Durham to Des Moines, red and blue states are electing DAs committed to improving public safety by embracing new approaches to justice.

Turn your generosity into justice & public safety
FJP works every day to promote a more compassionate, equitable, and accountable justice system that strengthens communities and keeps them safe. True public safety is built on fairness, trust, and evidence-based solutions that reduce harm and improve outcomes, not on outdated approaches that over rely on incarceration. But we can’t do it without your support. On October 9, 2025, join nonprofits across the country in celebrating Donor Advised Fund (DAF) Day, a nationwide effort encouraging donors to put their charitable dollars to work now to address today’s most pressing challenges. Billions of charitable dollars currently sit idle in DAFs while organizations like FJP urgently need resources to drive meaningful, data informed change and help communities thrive.
