Effective, just and humane responses to the causes and consequences of crime
THROUGH JUSTICE AND BEYOND
We make urgent, emerging, and long-term options clear as people navigate the justice system, plan for a more stable future, and renew their outlook on themselves and the world.
A RESTORATIVE APPROACH
By putting relationships between people and communities at the centre, we create a safe space that includes all voices with dignity and fair outcomes for all.
ADVOCACY FOR ACCESS
Across many programs and agencies, we help criminalized people overcome economic, racial, cultural, physical, or mental health barriers to reaching their potential on their terms.
OUR APPROACH
We help criminalized people and those impacted by crime to move forward.
PROGRAMS & SERVICES
We offer practical mental health and social support during and beyond the justice system.
“He dove into the depth of dungeons, took the gauge and dimensions of misery, depression and contempt, remembered the forgotten, attended the neglected, visited the forsaken, and compared and collated the distress of men in all countries.”
— Sir Edmund Burke, of John Howard (1781)
