Annie Schachar is a state engagement manager at Recidiviz. Previously, Annie was a director on the technical assistance team at the Center for Justice Innovation, working with jurisdictions around the country to develop their problem-solving court systems. Before that, Annie was a public defender and a prosecutor (consecutively, not concurrently!). She loves tomatoes and tabletop gaming. Never as crafty as she aspires to be, Annie has been working on the same cross-stitch of a pink tiger for the past three years. She holds a B.A. in criminology from the University of Toronto and a J.D. from York University.
We combine the efficiency of a tech company with the heart of a non-profit. Recidiviz began as a volunteer project at Google and has since grown into one of the brightest, kindest teams that civic tech has to offer. Our north star: safely and fairly shrinking the criminal justice system.
