C4RJ, a volunteer-driven non-profit, is funded by grants, donations and modest offender participation fees. It was begun in the late 1990s by two foresighted Concord women, Jean Bell and Joan Turner, and has caught on like wildfire, spreading to 12 other nearby towns in the last few years. Concord was joined by Carlisle early on. Since then Acton, Arlington, Ayer, Bedford, Boxborough, Cambridge, Everett, Groton, Littleton, Stow and Wellesley have signed on. C4RJ’s protocol is to partner with local police to bring an offender, a victim as well as other affected community members together in a group setting, not in a courtroom. What distinguishes restorative justice is the fact it recognizes that crime is a violation of people and relationships, not just the law. To read more about C4RJ, go to www.c4rj.com
