The Open Philanthropy Project recommended a grant of $206,000 to the American Conservative Union Foundation to support the work of the Center for Criminal Justice Reform (CCJR), led by Pat Nolan and David Safavian. This is a renewal grant, similar in purpose to our 2016 support for CCJR, and will allow the project to maintain its current staffing level through 2017. The goal of CCJR is to increase support for criminal justice reform from conservative policymakers in Congress, at the state level, and among the broad conservative base.
