ABOUT AVENUES FOR JUSTICE: Launched in the 1970s by Lower East Side residents, Avenues for Justice (then known as the Andrew Glover Youth Program) was one of the first alternatives to incarceration (ATI) programs for youth in the US and remains one of the few to have continuous Latinx leadership for 40+ years under Angel Rodriguez. AFJ fought for the Youth Part model that established ATI as the citywide and national standard for youth in the justice system.

Through our 40+ years, we have maintained among the highest success rates in the country - consistently over 90% of our youth do not commit a crime during a post-graduation three-year tracking period. AFJ currently serves 400+ youth offenders and at-risk youth citywide per year at our youth centers in Harlem, the Lower East Side, inside the Manhattan Criminal Courthouse, and via online programs.
