Who we are

Empowering the Next Generation of Revolutionaries

Our mission at the O.C.Justice Initiative is to be a catalyst collective liberation for social change. Guided by BIPOC youth leadership, we are committed to dismantling systemic racial disparities, challenging economic and legislative barriers, and safeguarding the human rights of our community's most marginalized individuals. Through targeted policy advocacy and grassroots community involvement, we aim to foster a more equitable and just society for all.

OCJI is committed to cultivating a new generation of leaders who will challenge and dismantle racial injustices and discrimination in a society that promises liberty for all. Through education, self-empowerment, mass mobilization, and the creation of innovative systems, OCJI empowers youth to drive transformative change and propose new, impactful legislation.


Currently, OCJI operates as an all-pro bono effort led by a dedicated core team and supported by over 15 regular volunteers. As we expand, OCJI is focused on building strong partnerships with educational institutions in Orange County to create sustainable infrastructure that will strengthen our mission for years to come.
