Overview

At DJ DS we use our innovations in architecture design and real estate development to attack the root causes of mass incarceration which we believe to be poverty racism lack of access to resources and the criminal justice system itself. Therefore with our non profit government and community partners we counter the societal inequities evident in the dominant architectural models of courthouses and prisons by co creating new prototypes such as peacemaking centers mobile villages and housing for foster age youth. Together we harness the power of the built environment to create triple bottom line equity and support the success and expansion of restorative justice education and workforce development programs.
