Communities thrive when citizens and public servants work together.

Good Apple Initiative is here to nourish those interconnected relationships.

Our Purpose

When Jaleel Stallings went out to peacefully protest against police brutality, he was met by the very thing he was protesting against — more violence.

Unlike so many others who have been incarcerated or killed in similar situations, Jaleel is fortunate to be able to walk away from his experience.

He created Good Apple Initiative to connect and equip Minnesotans to join together in elevating the integrity and cultural responsiveness of policing and justice.

Our Mission

To disrupt cycles of violence and make our communities safer for everyone, we facilitate meaningful connection, deeper understanding, and collaborative action.

Together, we can transform the culture of policing and justice in Minnesota.

Your donations help us to . . .

Change agents are working within every segment of our justice system to address systemic issues; often facing adversity and resistance. Good Apple Initiative aims to support and empower unsung heroes who uphold the values and ideals of public service. We provide a safe space to share ideas, coordinate efforts, and take collaborative action.

Together, we can create a new era of policing and justice in Minnesota, where integrity and honor are more than buzzwords.

Empower “Good Apples”

Good Apple Initiative strives to build trust and respect between communities and the justice system. When communities can expect accountability and partnership from our justice system, generations of fear will gradually recede, replaced by growing trust and respect.

Inspire Trust and Respect

Together, we will transform the culture of policing and justice in Minnesota.
