The Khnemu Culture

The work of the Khnemu Foundation is anchored in criminal justice reform. We work to build mutual accountability between people and elected officials to eliminate the inequities resulting from the criminal justice system.

We work to build workforce development programs and entrepreneurial accelerator programs that provide people with skills and opportunities to become economically self-sufficient.

Our policy and advocacy efforts focus on ending the collateral sanctions that result in civic death. 

Civic Death: the loss of all or almost all civil rights by a person due to a conviction for a felony or due to an act by the government of a country that results in the loss of civil rights. 

We prioritize efforts to improve both the natural environment and the built environment. Our focus on turning neighborhoods into communities centers safety, affordable and healthy housing, mental and physical wellbeing, and vibrant natural resources.
