Radio & Podcast

Colorado Radio for Justice

Colorado Radio for Justice is a nonpartisan, nonprofit radio station and media agency that supports and empowers the voices of people impacted by the criminal-legal system in Colorado and beyond. Our producers create and host innovative podcast and media productions, beaming stories, news, music and entertainment that amplifies diverse voices, lived experiences, and creative spirits

We engage listeners and producers who seek resources and respite from the impacts of injustice. At the same time, we invite listeners who believe that they’re not touched by the criminal-legal system to understand and recognize the ways in which they are. The voices and vision of each of the individuals on our airwaves are critical to our effort to complicate the false, dehumanizing narratives of crime and punishment in the U.S., and to spur more humane and just policies by shining a light on urgent stories and holding power to account.
