Dear Donor,
Your support is helping OurRJ grow our innovative model for families involved in Children Requiring Assistance proceeedings! Over the last three months, your donations helped OurRJ:
In particular, OurRJ is working to develop new systems that will help families assume greater agency and self-sufficiency in addressing conflict. OurRJ seeks to help families in CRA proceedings holistically address both the roots of harm and ongoing challenges faced by young people. As we hone our CRA model, we are working to assist families in engaging existing relationships in a young person’s life, in order to build lasting communities of support.
Still want to know more about the impact of your support? Hear about the transformative impact of restorative justice directly from the young people with whom we work!
"Having to talk about my problems with everyone helped us to understand each other and get everyone together."
"The restorative circle worked really well. It was easy for me to express myself and for everyone to feel heard."
Your support is allowing OurRJ to continue shifting the justice paradigm and, in the process, building stronger Massachusetts communities. Once again, thank you for your commitment to building a better justice system here in the Commonwealth!
Sincerely,
The OurRJ Team
