The Purpose

March is National Criminal Justice Month. Established by the United States Congress in 2009, its purpose is to promote societal awareness around the causes and consequences of crime, as well as strategies for preventing and responding to crime.

 

Prevention Zone, Inc. will recognize excellence within the criminal justice system through its annual Circles of Excellence Criminal Justice Awards Reception by recognizing individuals, public officials, organizations, celebrities, activists, and community leaders from across Texas whose exceptional efforts or outstanding service have led to positive changes in the criminal justice system.

​

Over 600,000 individuals return from incarceration each year. When you donate to Prevention Zone you are helping to provide services to individuals that have been stigmatized, marginalized, and removed from opportunity. You are also helping to build a nationwide movement of individuals who tirelessly

work to ensure that criminal justice reform stays at the forefront of the national conversation.

​

By supporting the Prevention Zone, your organization affirms its commitment to address the institutional barriers in the justice system.
