The National Black Women’s Justice Institute (NBWJI) is a nonprofit organization focused on reducing racial and gender disparities across the justice continuum affecting cisgender and transgender Black women, girls, and their families, by conducting research, providing technical assistance, engaging in public education, promoting civic engagement, and advocating for informed and effective policies.

NBWJI conducts research independently and in collaboration with a number of domestic universities and organizations on Black women and girls in the U.S. who are impacted by criminalization and the criminal legal system as a function of their intersecting identities. Our work also includes training and technical assistance to public agencies that are working to improve outcomes for women and girls impacted by criminalization.
