Our purpose
The FoundationWe help two federal accountability courts turn rigorous supervision into a real opportunity for change.
The ATL and RISE Courts bring judges, probation officers, attorneys, treatment providers, and participants together around a shared goal: reduce recidivism by pairing accountability with the structure and resources people need to move forward. The Foundation exists to strengthen that work.
