The Chicago Community Bond Fund (CCBF) is a non-profit organization dedicated to ending money bail and advocating for pretrial freedom in Cook County, Illinois. Through their sustainable, revolving community bail fund, CCBF has paid over $5 million in bond to free more than 800 individuals from jails and electronic monitoring in the state.
With a commitment to social justice, CCBF has been instrumental in achieving policy changes that have significantly reduced the number of incarcerated individuals in Cook County Jail. Their efforts have contributed to the passage of the Pretrial Fairness Act, which will ultimately eliminate money bond in Illinois by September 2023.
