JUST Alternatives is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit committed to supporting victims/survivors of violence and violation, and to the advancement of Victim-Centered and Offender-Accountability oriented practices in justice and corrections. Our mission is to identify and support effective Victim Impact and trauma-informed approaches to reducing violence and victimization by illuminating crime victims’ needs, including the need for personal accountability and acknowledgment from offenders. Survivors believe that offenders should be required to understand the depth of the harms they caused, and explain themselves – without excuses.
