Community Justice Program

A Community Justice Program is a community-based initiative that focuses on addressing crime and conflict through collaboration between justice agencies, local organizations, and residents. Instead of traditional punishment, it emphasizes restorative practices like dialogue, mediation, and support to help offenders make amends and reintegrate into society. The goal is to promote safety, accountability, and healing within the community by involving those affected and fostering a collective responsibility for justice and problem-solving.
