Education
The Education Committee has developed the first of several presentations to be given to community groups which show an interest in learning more about criminal justice issues. This presentation is currently being given to select groups and will be modified as needed. See email contact below to set up a presentation.
We believe this can help keep many from reoffending and become tax paying citizens.
A list of ways in which concerned citizens can assist C4RJ’s Education effort is included in the presentation, and is available to anyone who is interested. Just send an email to the Chair of the Educational Committee, education@c4rj.org
Support/Services
The Support and Services Committee has managed to find housing and jobs for over 20 men in the last year. This has led to these individuals NOT reoffending and returning to jail or prison, but becoming tax paying citizens.
Support Groups have also been established to help family members to better understand the justice system and to better support the future of their loved one.
Advocacy
The Advocacy Committee is attending Washington State Sentencing Guidelines to better understand the sentencing process and to give input to the system.
