We ensure that students
stay out of jail

Tens of thousands of police officers patrol the hallways of schools across the country. Hundreds of thousands of young people are suspended and expelled each academic year, and multiple generations continue to suffer.

The Counselors Not Cops Campaign aims to reduce the criminalization of students by utilizing community education, legal representation, and policy advocacy to ensure that students are not funneled through the criminal justice system.
