WHAT'S NEW

Community Prep High School's second annual art show, Hands On On Hold, was held June 7-15 in the East Village. Thank you to our sponsors and everyone who made the event a big success!
The Center for Alternative Sentencing and Employment Services was established in 1989 when the Court Employment Project and the Community Service Sentencing Project - originally demonstration projects designed and managed by the Vera Institute of Justice - were gathered under the umbrella of a single, independent non-profit corporation. Today, with a staff of 140 and an annual budget of $9 million, CASES provides services and supervision for over 10,000 offenders a year.

The mission of CASES is to increase the understanding
and use of community sanctions that are fair, affordable, and consistent with public safety. For more than 30 years, CASES has worked with the justice system to find sentencing alternatives that respond to justice system needs. By addressing the factors that underlie criminal behavior, such as poor education, lack of community support, inability to get and keep a job, substance abuse and low self-esteem, our programs help young and adult offenders re-integrate into society. We offer structured alternatives that are more substantial than probation, but less costly and intrusive than jail or prison. CASES and its programs contribute to safer streets, improve lives and save taxpayer dollars each year.
