Designing Justice + Designing Spaces

At Designing Justice + Designing Spaces (DJDS), we believe that the built environment embodies many of our society's gross inequities. Through our innovations in architecture and real estate development, we seek to end the crisis caused by mass incarceration by supporting reentry and diversion programs/ practices. With our non-profit, government and community partners, we co-create new prototypes, such as peacemaking centers, mobile classrooms, and housing for foster age youth. Together, we harness the power of the built environment to create triple bottom line equity and support the success and expansion of restorative justice, education, and workforce development programs.
