“Whatever community organization, whether it’s a women’s organization, or fighting for racial justice … you will get satisfaction out of doing something to give back to the community that you never get in any other way.”

— Ruth Bader Ginsburg

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

Volunteers are trained in restorative justice practices. Restorative Justice promotes community action to address conflict and crime in an inclusive manner. When the community is involved in the restorative justice process, its members no longer feel powerless in the face of crime and are essential in ensuring community wellbeing and safety.

Volunteers will:

Make Orleans county safer and stronger
Reduce crime and recidivism
Save taxpayers' money
Become better informed about important social issues
Learn new skills
Have opportunities to resolve conflicts
Foster mutual respect in their community
Build a better community
