Public Safety Robs Public School Funding: We Deserve Better
Our criminal justice system is supposed to hold people accountable for their actions and keep the public safe from these "bad people," right? Well the problem with this belief is that the majority of people that commit crimes are good people who make bad decisions. There's a way to hold people accountable for their actions, but it's not by taking a "tough on crime approach, it's by taking a "smart on crime" stance.
Smart on Crime means promoting policies that:
1. Increase Public Safety
2. Strengthen Services that Build Safe,Sound, and Healthy Communities
3. Save the State Money
Smart on Crime approaches promote evidence-based, safe and sensible sentencing reform that reduces our correction costs while maintaining-and even increasing- public safety (Partnership for Safety and Justice, 2013).
Smart on Crime approaches ensure we care for victims of crime by protecting and strengthening state and community based victim services rather than cutting them (Partnership for Safety and Justice, 2013).
Smart on Crime approaches strengthen community based addiction treatment and mental health services and other programs proven to reduce crime and create long term saving for the state (Partnership for Safety and Justice, 2013).
The following video explains why prison reform is essential. In short, We Deserve Better!!
