Description:	The Oregon Justice Resource Center seeks to promote civil rights and improve legal representation for communities that have often been underserved in the past: people living in poverty and people of color among them. They work in collaboration with like-minded organizations to serve underrepresented populations, to train future public interest lawyers, and to educate the community on issues related to civil rights and civil liberties. Their integrative, client-centered advocacy strategy includes focused direct legal services, public awareness and education campaigns, strategic partnerships, and coordinating their legal and advocacy areas to promote criminal justice reform. Oregon Justice Resource Center projects include: '''Civil Rights Project''' : Examines, tracks, and litigates civil rights issues related to the criminal justice system. '''The FA:IR Project''' : Works to address systemic failures and create a more fair, just, and humane criminal legal system. '''Immigration Rights Project''' : Provides personalized advice to Oregon public defense providers regarding the immigration consequences of pleas and convictions for their non-citizen clients. '''Oregon Innocence Project''' : Assists innocent people who have been wrongfully convicted in Oregon to clear their names, trains law students, and promotes legal reforms that will prevent and address wrongful conviction. '''Women’s Justice Project''' : Addresses the needs of women in the criminal justice system through direct civil legal services to incarcerated women as well as litigation, legislative reform, and other policy and communications initiatives. '''Youth Justice Project''' : Helps youth impacted by the adult criminal justice system, specifically those sentenced under Measure 11 or to life sentences, with filing appropriate paperwork in the court system and amicus support, and promotes reforms reducing the criminalization and incarceration of youth.
