THE ORGANIZATION
The Center for Justice Innovation (formerly the Center for Court Innovation) is a non-profit organization that works with communities and justice systems to advance equity, increase safety, and help individuals and communities thrive. The Center's goal is to identify and resolve as early as possible the challenges that bring people into the criminal and civil legal systems. It does this in a number of waysby developing and running programs that reduce the need for incarceration and enhance economic opportunity, conducting original research to identify what works, and sharing what we learn from our programming and research with those seeking to transform the justice system around the world.
The Center is an 800-employee, $100 million nonprofit that accomplishes its vision through three pillars of work: creating and scaling operating programs to test new ideas and solve problems, performing original research to determine what works (and what doesnt), and providing expert assistance and policy guidance to justice reformers around the world.
Operating Programs
The Centers operating programs, including the award-winning Red Hook Community Justice Center and Midtown Community Justice Center, test new ideas, solve difficult problems, and attempt to achieve systemic change within the justice system. Our projects include community-based violence prevention programs, alternatives to incarceration, reentry initiatives, and court-based initiatives that reduce the use of unnecessary incarceration and promote positive individual and family change. Through this programming, we have produced tangible results like safer streets, reduced incarceration, and improved neighborhood perceptions of justice.
Research
The Center's research teams are staffed with social scientists, data analysts, and lawyers who are academically-trained or have lived experience and who conduct research in the U.S. and globally on diverse criminal-legal system and justice issues. Their work includes evaluating programs and policies; conducting exploratory, community-based studies; and providing research translation and strategic planning for system actors. The Center has published studies on topics including court and jail reform, intimate partner violence, restorative justice, gun violence, reentry, sixth amendment rights, and progressive prosecution. The research teams strive to make their work meaningful and actionable to the communities they work with, policymakers, and practitioners.
Policy & Expert Assistance
The Center provides hands-on, planning and implementation assistance to a wide range of jurisdictions in areas of reform such as problem-solving courts (e.g., community courts, treatment courts, domestic violence courts), tribal justice, reducing incarceration and the use of fines/fees and reducing crime and violence. Our current expert assistance takes many forms, including help with analyzing data, strategic planning and consultation, policy guidance, and hosting site visits to its operating programs in the New York City area.
THE OPPORTUNITY
The Strong Starts Court Initiative (SSCI) is a special Infant-Focused Court Model with an emphasis on supporting Family Court involved families with subject children under the age of three. The goals of SSCI include increasing communication and collaboration between all parties and creating family-need-specific service plans that promote success and well-being, while keeping the infants needs, and voice, at the center of planning. SSCI has expanded to all five boroughs, including the Bronx, Queens, Staten Island, Brooklyn, and Manhattan, and also Westchester County.
One of Strong Starts key model components includes a Clinical Coordinator for each borough. The clinical coordinator, an expert in infant mental health and early childhood development, has a full-time presence in Family Court. Strong Starts Coordinators facilitate communication with the attorneys and caseworkers assigned to each child and family, and provide detailed reports to the Strong Starts Judge to promote developmentally and relationally-informed decision making.
The Strong Starts Court Initiative is seeking a Clinical Supervisor. Reporting to the Clinical Director, the Clinical Supervisor will be responsible for supervising and guiding the Clinical Coordinators in their day to day work as well as their clinical practice; participating in Clinical Conferences and other Strong Starts court appearances; supporting the Clinical Coordinators and other program staff in their work; and maintaining a small caseload of court-involved families.
