- The Three Strikes Justice Center is a non-profit organization focused on alleviating the overcrowding of prisons through Proposition 36, also known as the Three Strikes Reform Act. Our attorneys represent prison inmates currently serving life sentences in petitioning the courts for early release. We help inmates begin a new chapter in their lives because we don’t think a life-sentence is fair for the elderly or those charged with non-violent offenses. We understand the process of transformation for inmates who have spent their lives behind bars and advocate for second chances and new beginnings.
