Formerly known as the Audit Ahern Coalition, Decarcerate Alameda County is a growing coalition of organizations and community members joining together to demand that Alameda County free people from Santa Rita Jail, divest from incarceration & policing, and invest in community health, not cops. We are broad coalition of grassroots community and social justice organizations that have united to get people free from Santa Rita Jail and reinvest taxpayer dollars into life-affirming resources.
