What We Do

Repair Broken Lives

Criminal justice systems are in trouble and it’s easy to feel hopeless about broken systems, but there is a solution. It’s called restorative justice. And it works.

The Solution

Restorative justice is best accomplished through cooperative processes that allow willing prisoners and victims to meet and explore topics such as personal responsibility and making amends. This can lead to the transformation of people, relationships, and communities.

I decided to take part in the STP program because I was bored in my cell. When I attended the program, I was encouraged to make something of my life and to stay away from crime.
