Collaborate for Justice: We gathered with passionate advocates, community leaders, and justice reformers at the Collaborate for Justice event. This event brought together diverse voices and perspectives, united by a common goal: to drive meaningful change in our criminal justice system. Collaborate for Justice emphasizes the importance of community involvement in reform efforts. When we come together, share our experiences, and strategize collectively, we create a powerful force for change. Our community's strength lies in its diversity and commitment to making our justice system more fair, accountable, and restorative. Highlights: Inspiring Speakers: We heard from individuals who have been directly impacted by the justice system and are now leading efforts to reform it. Collaborative Workshops: Participants engaged in workshops designed to foster collaboration and develop actionable strategies for change. Networking Opportunities: The event provided a platform for building connections and forging partnerships that will drive future reform efforts. Call to Action: Join us in our mission to transform the justice system. Whether you are an advocate, a supporter, or someone seeking change, your voice is essential. Together, we can build a system that prioritizes rehabilitation, supports reentry, and fosters community well-being. #CollaborateForJustice #CommunityEngagement #JusticeReform #TogetherForChange #InspireAction

Let’s hear some good things from Indianapolis! In the final episode of our series on The Coalition to Advance Public Safety (CAPS) and its partner organizations, we spotlight Indianapolis. We explore how improving the criminal justice system is a key part of the puzzle in community violence intervention. Host Travon Free is joined by David Muhammad, Executive Director of the National Institute for Criminal Justice Reform, and Crista Carlino, RecycleForce Director and councilwoman, to discuss how they’re reducing crime while investing in formerly incarcerated men and women. Special thanks to the Coalition to Advance Public Safety, particularly the National Institute for Criminal Justice Reform and RecycleForce, for making today’s conversation possible.

'Policing at the speed of trust' *** This short paper (published in the Journal of Community Safety and Well-Being) underscores that trauma-impacted youth, especially those from marginalized backgrounds, often struggle with trust due to past injustices. For them, interactions with law enforcement can be charged with fear and aggression, triggered by past experiences of racism or mistreatment. Socially just policing must focus on trauma-responsive engagement, fostering trust through safe, tactful, and co-regulated interactions. This approach not only prevents re-traumatization but also improves communication and reduces disparities in policing outcomes. #TramaResponsivePolicing #TrustandPolicing https://lnkd.in/gYxPuQdb https://lnkd.in/gGFzSkDY

Dr | Lawyer | Consultant | International Criminal Law | Transitional Justice | Restorative Justice
A few days ago, HiiL | User-friendly Justice organized a very interesting event on community justice solutions. As my dear former professor Meg Satterthwaite, current UN Rapporteur on the independence of judges and lawyers, noted, 1.5 billion people lack meaningful access to justice for pressing everyday problems. Usually, this justice gap impacts the most those who are economically and socially disadvantaged. There are not enough judges and lawyers to close this gap, and often, a legal avenue is not even the best strategy to solve numerous issues. As many panellists stressed, instead in focusing only in lawyers and formal judicial systems, we should put people, communities, and their needs at the heart of the justice debate. It is crucial to democratise access to justice and empower communities to lead justice initiatives that can address issues better and strengthen the social fabric.
Well that was brilliant. Here are three key takeaways from our webinar ‘’Unlocking Community Justice Solutions: Scaling up for National Impact.’’ 1. Let's give Community Justice Systems the recognition they deserve. They need support, status, and the jurisdiction to build relevant partnerships. 2. It's time for formal justice systems and personnel to learn from customary and community justice systems. Judges can lead transformative change as system improvers and connectors between communities and the formal system. 3. Scaling up programmes will make them more effective, less expensive in the long run - and will shrink the Justice Gap. A huge thank you to all our amazing speakers: 🗣 Ms Jhoana Delgado Gaitán, Meg Satterthwaite, Tatyana Teplova, PhD, Annette Mbogoh, Hon. Justice Joel Ngugi, Hon. Justice Olugboyega Ogunfowora, Milkii Mekuria, and Sam Muller; as well as our very engaged audience. Stay tuned - we will be sharing an outcomes agenda for action on scaling community justice soon! And we hope to see you all again at the next webinar. #BetterJusticeBetterWorld

We need multi-door justice delivery. Courts, connected with other mechanisms, that solve justice problems. Community justice mechanisms are a key component. In my conversations with leaders from ministries of justice and judiciaries there are 3 main challenges: scale, ensuring quality, and sustainable funding. In this webinar very valueable insights were shared.
