Last Thursday, we successfully hosted our third “RJ Community Hour,” a pivotal event for community practitioners and supporters.
This gathering reinforced our mission to promote restorative practices as a foundation for community organizing.
We are excited about our plans for 2026, where we will launch a peer learning model integrating our CommunitiesAlive curriculum with therapeutic approaches for Transitional Aged Youth.
Join us in fostering community-driven solutions and strengthening our networks for meaningful change.

After this #GivingTuesday, we invite you to continue supporting transformative Restorative Justice programs in the Bay Area.
Learn about our Restorative Justice Diversion (RJD) program, which offers a unique approach to healing that focuses on accountability and restoring relationships.
By supporting our initiatives, you are not only helping youth who have caused harm but also empowering survivors and fostering community healing. Together, we can break the cycle of harm and create a more compassionate society.

Investing in human potential through our Restorative Justice Diversion program is a transformative approach.
It not only costs 99% less than juvenile incarceration but also fosters real accountability and personal growth. Witness the incredible journeys of individuals like M.S. and J.J., who turned their lives around with support and guidance.
Your contributions create a social return on investment, transforming liabilities into valuable community assets.

Tomorrow is #GivingTuesday!
We know that the challenges facing our community are too complex for any one organization to solve alone.
Here at CW, we choose cooperation over competition. We believe that by championing our partners, we are investing in a comprehensive safety net—a whole-person model where every donation contributes to a complete cycle of healing and stability.
Supporting these organizations ensures that every individual who leaves our restorative circle has the housing, advocacy, and care they need to thrive because #CommunityWorks
