Frontline Justice provides an authenticated online Learning Platform available through learn.frontlinejustice.org.
The Frontline Justice Learning Platform ("Learning Platform") provides online educational experiences designed to support community justice workers, legal aid organizations, community-based organizations, partner agencies, and other approved participants.
The Learning Platform is intended to deliver structured educational content, measure learner progress, support program evaluation, and issue certificates of completion for eligible educational courses.
The Learning Platform is not intended to provide legal advice, establish professional certification, or authorize any individual to engage in activities regulated under applicable laws governing the practice of law.
The Learning Platform enables eligible learners to:
The Learning Platform is provided solely for educational purposes.
Access to the Learning Platform does not:
Frontline Justice reserves the right to modify, suspend, replace, or discontinue any portion of the Learning Platform at any time.
Access to the Learning Platform is available only to individuals who have been enrolled through Frontline Justice or one of its authorized partner organizations. The Learning Platform is intended for use by people at least eighteen (18) years of age who work or intend to work or volunteer as a community justice worker, not by the general public.
Enrollment may occur through direct registration forms, organizational referrals, grant-funded pilot programs, technical assistance engagements, research initiatives, or other Frontline Justice programs.
Enrollment does not guarantee continued access to every course or future educational offering.
Frontline Justice reserves the right to determine eligibility for participation in any educational course.
Rather than requiring usernames and passwords, the Learning Platform uses secure, time-limited email authentication links ("Magic Links") to provide access. After the first link is clicked, learners have permanent access, but if idle for more than 30 days, a new magic link must be sent.
These links are intended solely for the enrolled learner and may not be shared with any other individual.
Each authentication link:
Learners are responsible for maintaining the security of their email accounts.
Access to the Learning Platform is granted only to learners who have been enrolled through Frontline Justice or one of its authorized partners. If a learner believes unauthorized access has occurred, they should notify Frontline Justice promptly.
Learners agree not to:
Frontline Justice may suspend access if it reasonably believes authentication credentials have been compromised or misused.
Each learner is assigned a unique learner identification number.
The learner identification number allows Frontline Justice to:
The learner identification number is used internally and is not intended to function as a public identifier.
Learners receive access only to educational courses assigned to them based on what they request to access through a registration form.
Course assignments may be determined by factors including:
Frontline Justice reserves the right to modify course assignments when educational courses change.
As part of providing educational services, Frontline Justice maintains learner records.
These records may include:
Learner records are used solely for legitimate educational, operational, reporting, research, grant administration, compliance, and program evaluation purposes as described in our Privacy Policy.
The Learning Platform records learner progress throughout each educational course.
Progress may include:
Learners may resume courses from previously completed points when supported by the Learning Platform.
Sharing with Affiliated Organizations. If a learner participates in a course through, or is affiliated with, an employer, community-based organization, legal services organization, training partner, or other participating organization, Frontline Justice may share information about the learner’s participation and progress with that organization. This may include course enrollment, module or course completion, assessment or quiz results, completion dates, certificates earned, and other educational milestones.
Anonymized and Aggregated Information. Frontline Justice may use and share anonymized or aggregated information derived from learner surveys, quizzes, assessments, course participation, and course completion. This information may be shared with funders, partners, outside stakeholders, or the public, including through newsletters, reports, presentations, websites, and social media. Information shared in this manner will not identify individual learners or reasonably permit their identification.
Educational programs may include quizzes, knowledge checks, interactive simulations, reflections, or other evaluation activities.
Certain courses may include interactive simulations or scenario-based learning activities embedded within the Learning Platform. These simulations are provided for educational and training purposes and allow learners to practice applying course concepts in hypothetical scenarios.
Frontline Justice may use a learner's Learner ID to connect participation in and completion of a simulation with the learner's training record. However, the simulations do not collect or store information about actual clients or legal matters, and the simulations do not have the capability to allow learners to input confidential client information, personally identifiable information about another person, or information concerning an actual legal matter.
Frontline Justice reserves the right to establish minimum completion requirements before certificates are issued.
Certain educational courses may result in the issuance of certificates of completion after all required coursework, assessments, and other completion requirements have been successfully satisfied.
A certificate of completion acknowledges successful completion of the requirements for a Frontline Justice educational course.
A certificate of completion does not:
Where separate credentials, digital badges, or other recognitions are offered, they remain subject to their own eligibility requirements and may require additional steps beyond course completion.
Educational programs may begin and conclude with required surveys.
Survey responses help Frontline Justice:
Surveys are associated with learner records and are not anonymous. However, survey responses may be reported in aggregate or de-identified form for research, evaluation, or reporting purposes. Frontline Justice may also share a learner’s identifiable course information with supervisors and program leads from the learner’s organization.
When applicable, certificates of completion may be issued automatically following successful completion of all required educational activities.
Certificates acknowledge completion of a Frontline Justice educational course.
Certificates do not:
Frontline Justice reserves the right to revoke or reissue certificates where necessary to correct administrative errors or address fraud.
All educational materials are provided for general educational and informational purposes.
Although Frontline Justice makes reasonable efforts to ensure that educational content is accurate and current at the time of publication, laws, regulations, administrative procedures, agency guidance, and best practices change frequently.
Users remain solely responsible for verifying any information before relying upon it in practice.
Educational content should never be interpreted as:
Completion of any Frontline Justice course does not authorize any individual to perform activities prohibited by applicable laws governing the unauthorized practice of law.
To protect learners and program integrity, Frontline Justice employs reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards.
These safeguards may include:
No internet-based system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Learners should promptly report suspected security concerns.
The Learning Platform relies upon trusted third-party technology providers to deliver educational services.
These providers may include services supporting:
Frontline Justice selects providers believed to maintain appropriate security and privacy practices but does not control every aspect of third-party operations.
Additional information regarding third-party processing appears in the Privacy Policy.

Accordingly, Frontline Justice may:
Reasonable efforts will be made to minimize disruption to learners.

These expectations apply in addition to Frontline Justice’s general legal disclosures set forth herein.
Groundwork is not a public forum for requesting, offering, or receiving legal advice or services. No content posted here should be interpreted as legal counsel, and no interaction on this platform creates an attorney-client or client–representative relationship.
This space is intended to support peer learning among justice workers and allies. Justice workers may share general resources, information, or reflections with one another to support professional growth and problem-solving. However, users may not:

Users may also choose to display personal contact information in their profiles, including email addresses, phone numbers, or social media links. These settings are controlled by each user, and any such information is shared at their own discretion.
However, users may not post someone else’s contact details or identifying information in a thread, tag someone in a sensitive context, or forward private information outside of the platform without consent. Violating this rule may result in suspension or termination of access to Groundwork.
All users must accurately represent themselves and their affiliations. Users may not:
Your profile must reflect your real-world identity and role in the justice worker ecosystem. Misrepresentation may result in platform suspension.

These expectations apply specifically to information shared by members in community spaces such as posts, replies, or discussion threads. They do not apply to materials in the Resource Library, posted events, or curated content shared by Frontline Justice for public distribution.
While users are encouraged to share general insights and lessons learned, any content involving personal experiences, professional reflections, or user opinions should remain within the platform unless explicit permission is granted.
Important Notice: Groundwork is not a confidential or encrypted platform. While we take reasonable precautions to secure data, users should assume that any content shared may be visible to other authorized members. Please use discretion when posting sensitive reflections or experiences.
All Groundwork community standards apply equally to content generated with artificial intelligence tools. AI-generated content that is harmful, deceptive, discriminatory, or violative of platform rules will be treated the same as human-generated content. Users are responsible for ensuring that any AI-generated content they share complies with these guidelines.
You may not use Groundwork to engage in or facilitate any illegal, abusive, or unsafe behavior. Prohibited conduct includes, but is not limited to:
Frontline Justice reserves the right to interpret and respond to misconduct as necessary to protect its users and organizational mission.
Groundwork is intended exclusively for individuals located within the United States. It is not directed to residents of the European Union or other non-U.S. jurisdictions.

Frontline Justice does not offer or market its services to individuals outside of the U.S. We reserve the right to remove access for individuals whose use would expose Frontline Justice to unintended regulatory compliance obligations.
Groundwork is monitored and moderated by Frontline Justice staff. Group leaders, discussion leads, group administrators, and other facilitators may assist in managing content, but do not have independent enforcement authority unless specifically authorized.
Depending on the nature and severity of the violation, users may be subject to:
Repeated or egregious misconduct will result in permanent revocation of platform access.
The information shared by users on Groundwork is not verified by Frontline Justice and is provided for general informational and community-building purposes only. Frontline Justice makes no representations or warranties regarding the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or legality of any content posted by users other than Frontline Justice staff. You are solely responsible for evaluating any information or advice shared on the platform and should consult with a qualified legal, medical, or other professional before taking any action based on that content.
Frontline Justice staff may post curated resources or guidance based on publicly available information and expert input. While we make reasonable efforts to ensure that such content is accurate and up to date at the time of posting, we cannot guarantee that it remains current, complete, or applicable across all jurisdictions. Legal, policy, and programmatic landscapes vary by state and are subject to change. Any official or time-sensitive guidance should be confirmed with the appropriate legal authority, public agency, or service provider.
Use of information from Groundwork is entirely at your own risk. Frontline Justice disclaims any and all liability related to user reliance on content posted in the community.
Frontline Justice reserves the exclusive right to interpret, apply, and revise these community guidelines. While we aim to resolve concerns collaboratively, we maintain discretion over disciplinary actions and content moderation.

We may also use aggregated or de-identified information to evaluate program outcomes, measure educational effectiveness, satisfy grant reporting requirements, conduct research, and inform future program development.
We may use the Personal Information you provide to us for the following purposes:
We may use the Personal Information we collect about you for the following purposes:
We may use the Personal Information we receive from other sources to:
We may process aggregated or de-identified information about our Services’ visitors where it does not identify or reasonably permit identification of an individual.
The following chart provides a high-level summary of the information we process for each purpose and how we may use or disclose such information. Please note that we may not collect each category of information about every user of our Services.
The Learning Platform maintains learner records necessary to deliver educational services. These records may include learner identifiers, assigned programs, course progress, module completion, assessment results, certificates of completion, survey participation, and technical support history.
Learner records are used only for legitimate educational, operational, auditing, compliance, reporting, security, and program evaluation purposes. Frontline Justice does not sell learner records or use them for unrelated commercial purposes.
Many educational courses include surveys before, during, or after training. Survey responses are associated with learner records through internal learner identifiers and therefore are not anonymous.
Survey information may be analyzed individually for program administration and in aggregated or de-identified form for research, quality improvement, grant reporting, and educational evaluation. Frontline Justice does not publish personally identifiable survey responses without the participant's consent unless required by law.
Frontline Justice uses cookies and similar technologies to operate the Learning Platform, maintain secure sessions, remember user preferences, and understand how visitors use our Services.
Analytics technologies may include Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager, Linkly, and similar services that help us understand website traffic, learning engagement, and platform performance. These technologies collect information such as browser type, device information, IP address, referral source, and pages visited. We use this information to improve accessibility, usability, security, and educational effectiveness.
Frontline Justice may receive aggregate or non-learner-specific analytics about the use and performance of interactive simulations and other embedded learning activities. These analytics may include information about how the simulation is used and technical performance information. Individually identifiable simulation analytics are limited to the completion of the simulation for course completion confirmation.
Frontline Justice may use artificial intelligence technologies to assist with software development, drafting educational materials, summarizing information, improving accessibility, and supporting internal operations. Human oversight remains responsible for reviewing educational content, organizational communications, and significant operational decisions.
Artificial intelligence is not used to provide legal advice through the Learning Platform, and generative AI is not used at all in the platform.
Frontline Justice shares personal information only when necessary to operate our Services, comply with legal obligations, protect the security of our systems, or support our educational mission.
Information may be shared with trusted service providers that perform functions on our behalf, including learning management, hosting, analytics, surveys, certificate generation, communications, and customer relationship management. These providers receive only the information reasonably necessary to perform their contracted services.
We may also disclose information when required by law, court order, legal process, or to protect the rights, safety, property, or security of Frontline Justice, our learners, partners, or the public.
Frontline Justice is committed to measuring the impact of its educational courses. We may prepare reports for funders, partner organizations, researchers, and stakeholders describing participation, completion rates, learner outcomes, and program effectiveness.
Whenever reasonably possible, these reports use aggregated or de-identified information. Personally identifiable information will not be publicly disclosed without consent except where required by law or expressly authorized by the participant.
Frontline Justice retains personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to provide educational services, administer programs, satisfy legal, contractual, regulatory, funding, auditing, and reporting obligations, resolve disputes, enforce our agreements, protect our systems, and improve our programs.
Retention periods vary based on the type of information collected. Learning records, including course completion history, certificates of completion, assessment results, and related educational records, may be retained after a learner has completed a program in order to verify participation, respond to future requests, support grant reporting, evaluate program effectiveness, and maintain historical program records.
Authentication information is retained only for the period necessary to provide secure access to the Learning Platform. After a learner accesses a course, the platform uses a secure httpOnly session cookie to maintain the learner's authenticated session. This cookie is used solely to keep the learner signed in and allow them to return to their training without repeatedly requesting a new access link. The session cookie does not contain learning records or personal profile information, cannot be accessed by JavaScript running in the browser, and is not used for advertising or cross-site tracking. The session automatically expires after 30 days of inactivity (or sooner if the learner signs out or clears browser cookies), at which point a new authentication process is required.
Temporary authentication links and other one-time or short-lived authentication credentials are retained only for the time necessary to authenticate access and are invalidated in accordance with our security practices.
Technical logs, security logs, and analytics information are retained in accordance with operational, security, and fraud prevention needs, as well as the retention practices of our service providers.
Frontline Justice implements administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, and destruction.
Security measures may include secure authentication, encrypted communications, role-based access controls, cloud security protections, monitoring for suspicious activity, secure hosting environments, and vendor security controls provided by trusted third-party service providers.
Although we employ commercially reasonable safeguards, no method of transmitting or storing information electronically is completely secure. Accordingly, we cannot guarantee absolute security, and users provide information at their own risk.
Depending upon your jurisdiction and applicable law, you may have the right to request access to the personal information we maintain about you, request correction of inaccurate information, request deletion of information where legally permissible, request a copy of certain information, withdraw consent where processing is based upon consent, or object to certain uses of your information.
Frontline Justice will review each request in accordance with applicable law and may decline requests where we are legally required or permitted to retain information.
Individuals wishing to access, correct, or request deletion of their personal information may contact Frontline Justice using the contact information provided at the end of this Privacy Policy.
Before fulfilling certain requests, Frontline Justice may require reasonable verification of identity to protect the privacy and security of learner records and other personal information.
Frontline Justice is committed to making its Services reasonably accessible to individuals with disabilities. We continually evaluate opportunities to improve accessibility across our website, Learning Platform, educational materials, and digital communications.
Individuals experiencing accessibility barriers are encouraged to contact Frontline Justice so that we may explore reasonable accommodations or alternative methods of accessing our educational resources.
Frontline Justice's Services, including the Learning Platform, are intended only for individuals who are at least eighteen (18) years of age unless participation by younger individuals is expressly authorized through a supervised educational initiative.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of thirteen. If we learn that personal information has been collected from a child contrary to this Privacy Policy, we will take reasonable steps to delete that information.
Frontline Justice primarily serves individuals and organizations located within the United States. Our Services are intended for U.S.-based educational courses and are operated from the United States.
Individuals accessing our Services from outside the United States acknowledge that their information may be transferred to and processed within the United States where privacy laws may differ from those of their jurisdiction.
Frontline Justice may update this Privacy Policy periodically to reflect changes in our programs, technology, legal obligations, or operational practices. The effective date at the beginning of this Privacy Policy will indicate when revisions become effective.
Material changes will be posted through our website or otherwise communicated where appropriate. Continued use of the Services following publication of revised policies constitutes acceptance of those revisions.

We may disclose Personal Information that we collect or you provide as described in this Privacy Policy:
We may also disclose your personal information:
We disclose this information to provide our Services in an efficient and effective manner, to communicate with you about our Services, to better understand how our Services are used, to analyze the effectiveness of our Services and marketing efforts, and to provide you with marketing.
We may disclose aggregated or de-identified information about our Services’ visitors where it does not identify or reasonably permit identification of an individual.
We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal information you provide to us. We have created mechanisms to provide you with the following control over your information:
As stated in this Policy, we may collect and share your personal information for third-party advertising purposes through the use of cookies and other automated tracking technologies.
Residents of Colorado may opt out of targeted advertising, as defined under the Colorado Privacy Act, by setting their browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert them when cookies are being sent. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this site may be inaccessible or may not function properly. Colorado residents may opt out of targeted advertising using the online web form located in the footer of our website.
As part of our efforts to provide residents of Colorado with control over their personal information, residents of Colorado or their authorized agent may email us at info@frontlinejustice.org to request access to, correction, deletion, or portability of their personal information. When we receive a request, we may be required to verify your identity in accordance with the Verifying Requests section below.
Please note that we may decline to accommodate an access, correction, or deletion request where we are required or permitted to retain the information. We may also refuse to accommodate a request if we believe doing so would violate any law or legal requirement or cause the information to be incorrect. If an exemption applies, we will notify you of the exemption in our response to your request.
Additionally, to the extent that we deny your request, residents of Colorado may appeal such decisions by emailing us at info@frontlinejustice.org.
When we receive a request, we may be obligated to verify that the person requesting information or deletion is the individual to whom the data request relates. This verification process is critical to maintaining the privacy and security of the personal data that you entrust to us. To verify a request, we may request up to three pieces of personal information about you to compare against our records. We may also request that you sign a declaration under penalty of perjury from the individual whose personal information is the subject of the request.
We have implemented measures designed to secure your personal information from accidental loss and unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure.
All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers behind firewalls. Payment transactions and related information are generally processed by third-party payment processors.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we do our best to protect your personal information, we cannot guarantee the security of your personal information transmitted to our Services. Any transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for any circumvention of privacy settings or security measures on our Services.
Our Services may contain links to third-party websites. When we provide links, it is for your convenience, and we do not endorse any products or services or assume responsibility for any content on third-party websites or any links contained within them. This Privacy Policy only applies to our Services. We assume no responsibility for personal information collected, stored, or used by third parties as a result of visiting their websites. We advise you to read the privacy policy of any third-party websites you choose to visit.
When accessing Groundwork, users are interacting with a platform operated by Hivebrite, a third-party service provider.

This document explains the technologies used on this website that support the purposes described throughout the Cookie Policy. These technologies allow the website owner to access or store information on a user's device. This may include placing a cookie or running a script as the user interacts with the website.
For simplicity, all such technologies are referred to as Trackers in this document, unless a distinction is necessary.
For example, cookies can be used on both web and mobile browsers, but they are browser-based tools. It would be inaccurate to refer to cookies in the context of mobile applications. For that reason, the term cookies is used only when it specifically refers to that type of Tracker.
Some uses of Trackers may require the user's consent. When consent is required and given, it can be withdrawn at any time by following the instructions provided in this document.
This website uses both:
Unless otherwise noted, third-party providers may access and manage the Trackers they place.
The duration and expiration of cookies and similar Trackers vary depending on the settings defined by the website owner or the third-party provider. Some Trackers expire when the browsing session ends, while others remain active for a limited period to support functionality such as maintaining a secure authenticated session.
In addition to the information provided in each section below, users may find more detailed and updated information about Tracker duration, functionality, and related practices by reviewing the linked privacy policies of third-party providers or by contacting the website owner.
Frontline Justice uses tracking technologies (“Trackers”) to support website operations, enhance functionality, understand user behavior, and deliver relevant communications. These Trackers may include cookies, scripts, pixels, or similar technologies that store or access data on your browser or device.
Trackers are grouped into four categories: Necessary, Functionality, Measurement, and Marketing. Some Trackers are required to ensure the website works correctly, while others are used with your consent to improve your experience or support outreach efforts.
We use both first-party Trackers, which are managed directly by Frontline Justice, and third-party Trackers provided by trusted vendors. Details for each category are provided below.
Necessary Trackers are required to operate the Frontline Justice website and deliver core services. These tools help manage page loads, navigation, script execution, and overall stability. They do not collect personal data for advertising or analytics purposes.
These Trackers are always active and cannot be turned off through user preferences because they are essential to the website’s functioning.
Examples of Necessary Trackers include:
Functionality Trackers enable features that enhance your experience, such as signing up for newsletters or other communications. These Trackers support user engagement without collecting information for profiling or behavioral advertising.
An example includes the use of mailing list services to manage subscriptions and communications preferences.
Measurement Trackers help us understand how visitors interact with our website. These tools collect aggregated data related to traffic, behavior, click paths, and technical performance. This information allows us to improve usability and understand community needs.
We use services such as Google Analytics and Linkly to evaluate engagement, optimize user flow, and ensure the site is accessible and effective.
Marketing Trackers support outreach, fundraising, and audience engagement. These tools may be used to personalize communications or track how users respond to invitations, updates, or campaign messages. They help ensure that content is meaningful and appropriately delivered.
We use platforms like Mailchimp, Zoho, SendGrid, and Airtable to manage communications and maintain stakeholder relationships.
Below is an updated table summarizing the opt-out options for each service:
Users can manage their preferences for non-essential Trackers in the privacy choices panel provided on the website. Necessary Trackers will remain active to maintain basic functionality.
In addition, users may:
Users can view, block, or delete cookies through their browser settings. Common browser support pages include:
Mobile device users may adjust app-level or system-level settings to limit tracking.
Tracker duration may vary depending on the service provider. Some cookies expire at the end of your session, while others may remain on your device for a longer period to support analytics, personalization, or functionality. For specific durations, please refer to the privacy policies linked in the table above.
Notwithstanding the above, Users may follow the instructions provided by the Network Advertising Initiative (US), the Digital Advertising Alliance (US), or other similar services. Such initiatives allow Users to select their tracking preferences for most of the advertising tools. The Owner thus recommends that Users make use of these resources in addition to the information provided in this document.
The Digital Advertising Alliance offers an application called AppChoices that helps Users to control interest-based advertising on mobile apps.
Users are free to decide whether or not to allow the use of Trackers. However, please note that Trackers help this Website to provide a better experience and advanced functionalities to Users (in line with the purposes outlined in this document). Therefore, if the User chooses to block the use of Trackers, the Owner may be unable to provide related features.

Since the use of third-party Trackers through this Website cannot be fully controlled by the Owner, any specific references to third-party Trackers are to be considered indicative. In order to obtain complete information, Users are kindly requested to consult the privacy policies of the respective third-party services listed in this document.
Given the objective complexity surrounding tracking technologies, Users are encouraged to contact the Owner should they wish to receive any further information on the use of such technologies by this Website.
