About Us Justice Process Victim/Witness Services Expungement Media/Public Information Contact Join Our Team Community Justice Panelists A grassroots alternative to traditional prosecution aimed at restoring victims and communities impacted by crime. Its mission is to unite the victim, the responsible party and the community so that all parties can work together to make the victim whole, curb future offenses and give the community a larger role in the criminal justice process. Responsible parties and victims must consent to participation in the program. We are looking for community members — volunteers willing to undergo training and meet twice a month — to make up the Community Justice Panels (CJP).
