Michigan Collaborative to End Mass Incarceration

Our Steering Team is a diverse group of both large and small organizations leading in their communities and around the state that sets the MI-CEMI agenda. Working groups composed of Steering Team and general members are established to undertake the tasks of moving the agenda items forward, setting goals, and doing the work needed to achieve those goals.

MI-CEMI supports the people and organizations on the front lines working to improve public safety and end mass incarceration so that we can accomplish more together than any of us can on our own. To do that we: * Amplify and mobilize: Help members achieve strength through numbers by supporting each other’s efforts. * Coordinating & convening shared strategies to address these topics. * Relationship building: among members that supports full inclusion. * Project support: to help good Steering Team-approved ideas get off the ground. * Sharing Resources: Building shared resources such as a legislation and media tracker and supporting resource sharing so that organizations can share information such as polling data or legislative analysis. * Conflict Management: so that differences in tactics do not undermine shared goals.
