About Us
The Bail Project is a national nonprofit on a mission to combat mass incarceration by transforming the pretrial system across the country. Our community-based teams work with local partners to pay bail for thousands of low-income people each year, reducing the human suffering caused by unaffordable cash bail, restoring the presumption of innocence, and building on the work of grassroots movements for decarceration. In Los Angeles, we partner with the LA County Public Defender and UCLA Law’s Criminal Justice Program to provide free bail assistance to low-income residents. In addition to paying bail for our clients, we provide court date reminders, transportation assistance, and referrals to social service partners. We also collect data and stories to support advocacy and systemic reform. Through these efforts, we seek to transform pretrial justice for generations to come, bringing us closer to ending mass incarceration and racial and economic disparities in the U.S. criminal legal system.
