End Money Bail.
The Nashville Community Bail Fund is a community organization that provides a service for bail in order to help the court system facilitate the protection of constitutional rights and due process for each and every citizen. We see ourselves as a partner to the courts in this regard where community wellness, public safety and the diplomacy of the court system is our utmost concern.
Why Does Bail Exist?
Bail exists to ensure that pretrial detention does not occur unnecessarily while maintaining court appearances. It aims to balance individual rights with public safety, allowing accused persons to remain free until a determination of the ALLEGED charges is reached by a court of law.
How it Works.
Donations to the Nashville Community Bail Fund are invested into our bail fund and used to free community members who are held in pre-trial detention. At the conclusion of a person’s case, we get the money back and post bail for other community members.
