Transformative justice <\/strong>seeks to solve the problem of violence at the grassroots level, without relying on punishment, incarceration, or policing. Community-based approaches to preventing crime and repairing its damage have existed for centuries. However, in the punitive atmosphere of contemporary criminal justice systems, they are often marginalized and operate under the radar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

_From Beyond Survival Book<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transformative Justice<\/strong> (TJ) is a political framework and approach for responding to violence, harm and abuse. At its most basic, it seeks to respond to violence without creating more violence and\/or engaging in harm reduction to lessen the violence. TJ can be thought of as a way of \u201cmaking things right,\u201d getting in \u201cright relation,\u201d or creating justice together. Transformative justice responses and interventions 1) do not rely on the state (e.g. police, prisons, the criminal legal system, I.C.E., foster care system (though some TJ responses do rely on or incorporate social services like counseling);  2) do not reinforce or perpetuate violence such as oppressive norms or vigilantism; and most importantly, 3) actively cultivate the things we know prevent violence such as healing, accountability, resilience, and safety for all involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
