Through direct volunteer projects and activist efforts both on campus and in the community, Criminal Justice Awareness and Action (CJAA) works to enhance student awareness of the problems plaguing the criminal justice system. Recognizing that criminal justice is not simply limited to the confines of the prison system, CJAA focuses on issues of race, politics and economic status that affect juvenile justice, the death penalty and sentencing policies.
