ELLA BAKER CENTER FOR HUMAN RIGHTS (THE ORGANIZATION") IS BUILDING A MEMBERSHIP-BASED MOVEMENT TO ADVANCE JUSTICE REINVESTMENT BY REALLOCATING RESOURCES AWAY FROM PRISONS AND PUNISHMENT AND TOWARD FAMILY-DRIVEN SOLUTIONS THAT IMPROVE PUBLIC HEALTH, SAFETY, AND PROSPERITY FOR COMMUNITIES.
WE SUCCESSFULLY LAUNCHED A CAMPAIGN TO AUDIT THE FINANCES OF THE ALAMEDA COUNTY SHERIFF, HIGHLIGHTING NUMEROUS REPORTS OF WRONGFUL DEATHS, EXCESSIVE FORCE WITH AND WITHOUT WEAPONS, AND ABUSE AND BATTERY, BUILDING PUBLIC SUPPORT FOR REDUCING THE SHERIFF'S BUDGET AND INVESTING RESOURCES IN MUCH-NEEDED COMMUNITY SERVICES. OUR ANNUAL NIGHT OUT FOR SAFETY AND LIBERATION (NOSL) EVENT REACHED DOZENS OF CITIES ACROSS THE US, HELPING TO CHANGE THE CONVERSATION ON PUBLIC SAFETY TO BE LESS FOCUSED ON FEAR, PUNISHMENT, AND CRIMINALIZATION AND MORE FOCUSED ON HOW COMMUNITIES CAN BUILD EQUITY AND POWER BY INVESTING AT THE LOCAL LEVEL. WE RAN A SUCCESSFUL INTEGRATIVE VOTER ENGAGEMENT (IVE) CAMPAIGN IN OAKLAND SUPPORTING CIVIC ENGAGEMENT AND VOTER EDUCATION AHEAD OF THE JUNE 2018 PRIMARY. ALL CANVASSERS IN THE IVE PROJECT WERE SYSTEM-IMPACTED WOMEN OF COLOR.
WE CONTINUED BUILDING MOMENTUM FOR RESTORE OAKLAND, REACHING MORE THAN $15 MILLION IN TOTAL FUNDS SECURED FOR THE CAPITAL CAMPAIGN BY THE END OF 2018. CONSTRUCTION AND PERMITTING PROCESSES ON THE BUILDING AT 1419 34TH AVE IN OAKLAND'S FRUITVALE NEIGHBORHOOD CONTINUED THROUGHOUT THE YEAR. STAFF FROM THE NEWLY-FORMED RESTORE OAKLAND 501(C)(3) CONTINUED CONDUCTING LISTENING SESSIONS AND OUTREACH TO LEARN ABOUT LOCAL NEEDS AND PRIORITIES. STAFF REACHED MORE THAN 200 PEOPLE THROUGH LISTENING SESSIONS AND 300 THROUGH OUTREACH EFFORTS. THIS WORK WILL ALLOW US TO PROVIDE THE BEST POSSIBLE SERVICES AND ENGAGEMENT OPPORTUNITIES AS WE FIGHT FOR AFFORDABLE HOUSING, LIVABLE WAGES, COMMUNITY REINVESTMENT, AND RESTORATIVE JUSTICE.
THE YEAR-LONG REGIONAL NARRATIVE CHANGE PROJECT SUNSETTED AS PLANNED IN 2017. THE WORK OF ADVANCING NARRATIVES ON THE NEED TO SHIFT RESOURCES AWAY FROM PRISONS AND PUNISHMENT AND TOWARD COMMUNITY-LED ALTERNATIVES IS NOW FULLY HOUSED IN THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE REFORM PROGRAM.
