Alliance for Safety and Justice

About Alliance for Safety and Justice

Alliance for Safety and Justice’s recent giving centers criminal justice reform through state-level policy work, victim services, and public safety advocacy. The largest grant in the recent list was $150,000 to San Francisco General Hospital Foundation for general support, and other sizable awards went to University of California Irvine and University of California San Francisco Foundation for projects described in Schedule O. That mix suggests a funder that supports both policy-oriented institutions and organizations tied to trauma recovery, research, and community safety. The foundation also backs groups working directly with people affected by violence and incarceration. Examples include Safe and Just Michigan for general support, A New Way of Life Reentry Program in Los Angeles, and Broken by Violence in Fairfield. Several grants are described as general support or organizational operating support, which points to flexible funding rather than tightly restricted project-only awards. Across the recent grants list, the foundation’s work is national in scope, with recipients in California and beyond. The giving pattern aligns with its stated aim of advancing bipartisan state-level policy solutions while centering crime survivors and people directly impacted by the justice system.
