Council for Court Excellence

Council for Court Excellence's (CCE's) mission is to bring people together to conduct research, educate, and advocate to make D.C.’s unique legal systems more just, equitable, and accountable to the community.

CCE’s entire organizational model is rooted in cross-sector collaboration; it is central to how we conduct our research, develop policy positions, and design campaigns or educational guides. We recognize that the most innovative, effective solutions are typically created by those closest to the problem, so CCE prioritizes partnering with practitioners, policy makers, service providers, returning citizens, and others directly involved in or affected by the legal system to build consensus-driven, high-impact, lasting reforms for D.C.
