CCJRC has been successfully advocating for sensible criminal justice reform in Colorado for almost two decades. We were founded in 1999 when Senator Dorothy Rupert, in alliance with Representative Penfield Tate, introduced legislation calling for a three-year halt on prison expansion and the creation of a task force on sentencing reform.
The Rupert Tate Game Changer Award honors its two co-founders and their prescience in challenging the criminal justice status quo in Colorado. This year’s award is being presented to

Incarceration Crisis in Colorado
Over the past 35 years, the state prison budget has exploded by almost 1288% and we’ve seen an unprecedented growth in the prison population.
People Impacted
When you combine the closing of mental health facilities with a war on drugs, you get an enormous ripple effect across our communities.
Public Safety That Works
We’re often ignoring alternative strategies that do work to prevent crime. For example, research shows that higher levels of household income are associated with lower rates of intimate partner violence against women.
Compromising Our Children’s Futures
The unprecedented growth in prison spending is one of the reasons that Colorado ranks at the bottom of states for public investment in education.
