The Council of Accountability Court Judges (CACJ) was created in 2015 as part of the Special Council on Criminal Justice Reform for Georgians, formed by the Georgia General Assembly in 2011.
The Council is charged with furthering the development of Georgia's accountability courts under the guidance and expertise of the judges presiding over the important work being performed by the programs every day. The Council itself is evidence of our state's commitment to serving non-violent offenders in a manner that saves taxpayer money upholds public safety, and results in the betterment of communities.
Our mission is to provide a unified framework that promotes and improves the quality, accessibility, and administration of Accountability Courts.
