The purpose of the Criminal Justice Commitee is to eliminate the disparate treatment of blacks in all aspects of law enforcement and criminal justice systems by:

- Identifying and monitoring practices and policies which lead to unscientific use of race and ethnicity in police and investigative actions

- Ensuring that juveniles are appropriately protected and rehabilitated

- Ensuring that incarcerated and released felons have access to appropriate voting, education, job training and civic participation resources

- Ensuring that government and states place moratorium on utilization of capital punishment until race and ethnicity is no longer statistically significant in predicting sentencing and execution
