Monroe Commons
Welcome to Monroe County District Attorney's Office Commons
Commons is a community-driven tool created by Measures for Justice that helps shape criminal justice policy.
Co-created
Working with Community Advocates and the District Attorney’s Office
When the public, police, prosecutors, and courts share and trust the same data, those data become the common ground for reform.
Data should not just be collected — it should be shared and used to improve outcomes. Through our collaboration with Measures for Justice and the Commons dashboard, we are making our work more visible and creating opportunities for informed community dialogue. This tool helps ensure that our office continues to evolve, guided by facts, fairness, and a commitment to serving Monroe County with integrity.
Brian Green, Monroe County District Attorney
