Impact Justice’sCalifornia Justice Leaders (CJL) is an original AmeriCorps program designed to intentionally recruit, train, and employ justice-impacted young adults as "credible messengers" in community-based organizations. Through a year of paid service, CJL members provide crucial peer support to incarcerated and formerly incarcerated youth, empowering them while honing their own professional skills. This program aims to foster deep personal and community transformation, further supported by our Alumni Program for ongoing career development.
