Who We Are

TCCPJ proudly participates in the Equal Justice Initiative’s (EJI) Community Remembrance Project, which memorializes documented victims of racial violence and fosters meaningful dialogue about race and justice.

TCCPJ partners with local organizations that are committed to racial healing in the community.
