Cities & Counties for Fine and Fee Justice will help cities and counties develop and implement fine and fee reforms that make a difference in the lives of low-income residents and residents of color. Our long-term goal is to create a cohort of local officials who act as national leaders, create innovative models for reform, and inspire localities across the country to do the same.



Through the network, city and county officials will lead local teams to assess and reform fines and fees that disproportionately impact low-income people and people of color in their jurisdictions. Participating localities will receive $50,000 in grant funding, individualized technical assistance, budgeting/revenue forecasting support, assistance with messaging and press outreach, and training on a range of tools, strategies, promising policies, and best practices.
