RJOY’s mission is to interrupt cycles of violence, incarceration, and wasted lives, by promoting a cultural shift from punitive responses to wrongdoing that increase harm to restorative approaches that heal it. We create consciousness shifts and systems change through education, training, direct services, advocacy, demonstration programs and movement-building. RJOY is a national thought leader in promoting the practice of restorative justice through a racial justice and cultural healing lens.
