Mission Statement
Jesuit Restorative Justice Initiative (JRJI) is a pastoral ministry of restorative justice that strives to heal broken relationships with those who are incarcerated and their families, as well as victims of crime and their families, through prayer, education, and advocacy.
JRJI mobilizes constituencies to advocate for the transformation of the justice system to become more restorative than punitive.
