Community Justice Initiatives
Community Justice Initiatives (CJI) is a non-profit organization known world-wide for starting the first Restorative Justice program involved with the criminal legal system.
Restorative Justice offers an approach to addressing conflict, crime and harm that brings together those who have caused harm, those affected by it, and the broader community to collaboratively seek healing, understanding, and meaningful accountability. RJ prioritizes the recognition of needs, accountability, the repair of harm, and — whenever possible — restorative relationships. Rather than being a one size fits all model, RJ is a flexible framework grounded in principles and practices that guide individuals and communities toward transformation in themselves, others, and the systems and contexts in which we live.
CJI equips community members to create opportunities for healing and resolution in situations of crime, conflict, and abuse. Our staff support volunteers to do frontline peace-building work as mediators, facilitators, and mentors. Learn more at cjiwr.com
