About Robert H. Jackson Center

The Robert H. Jackson Center, in Jamestown, NY, is a non-profit dedicated to promoting liberty under law, through the examination of the life and work of Supreme Court Justice Robert H. Jackson (1892-1954), and its relevance to current events and issues. Justice Jackson, who grew up in Frewsburg, NY, near Jamestown, had a monumentally significant impact on national and world affairs as United States Department of Justice Solicitor General, Attorney General, and Associate Supreme Court Justice, and as the architect of and the Chief U.S. Prosecutor at the International Military Tribunal (the Nuremberg Trials, after World War II). Since its founding in 2000, the Jackson Center has worked to “advance public awareness and appreciation of the principles of justice and the rule of law”. We educate and inspire, working to counter the threats of inequality, unfairness, and injustice. By examining and sharing Justice Jackson’s life and work, the Jackson Center brings a vitally important perspective and appreciation to current events and issues facing communities worldwide today. The Jackson Center’s work informs the dialogues taking place in classrooms, at community and corporate leadership tables, and within institutions of higher learning and public policy around the nation and the world. We impact lives through our Young Readers program, college student internships, teacher workshops, symposiums and curated exhibits for practitioners, scholars, and an engaged community. We initiate education, training, and research resulting in informed scholarship, improved practices, and productive partnerships. Through our commitment to “liberty under law”, we widen the audience and deepen the dialogues taking place in every corner of the globe to change lives and the future for the better.
