CURYJ (Communities United for Restorative Youth Justice), pronounced 'courage,' is a brand that empowers young people to dream beyond bars. Their mission is to transform communities by investing in the healing, aspirations, and activism of young individuals. CURYJ aims to end youth incarceration in California by 2030, recognizing that every young person is sacred and a gift.

Unfortunately, many face disempowerment and marginalization due to various systems such as criminal justice, immigration, foster care, and education. CURYJ works towards transformation and liberation by combining individual and collective healing with significant policy changes. Through their programs, they enroll systems-impacted young people, providing them with a sense of belonging, emotional wellness, and the development of new skills.

With the support of partners in the movement, CURYJ strives to create opportunities for young leaders to have a voice.

Together, we can create a brighter and more just future
