Jailing is failing victims of crime. Victims of crime frequently call for better support alongside better access to justice. Victims of crime also often advocate for processes and responses that genuinely address the causes of crime, and also ensure that people who have committed crime are held accountable for their actions.
The Justice Reform Initiative seeks to work alongside people who have experienced being the victim of a crime in order to build safer communities. This includes improved access to supports and services for victims and increasing the ability of people who are victims of crime to participate in evidence-based mechanisms and responses like transformative and restorative justice processes.
