National Association of Community and Restorative Justice

The National Association of Community and Restorative Justice (NACRJ) is an organization that promotes and supports alternative justice practices focused on repairing harm and rebuilding relationships. It advocates for approaches like restorative justice, where offenders, victims, and the community work together to address the impact of crimes, emphasizing accountability, healing, and reintegration rather than solely punishment. NACRJ provides resources, training, and networking opportunities to professionals and communities implementing these methods, aiming to create more equitable and effective responses to conflict and wrongdoing across various settings.
