NACRJ

NACRJ founders sought to provide a support system for reframing the concept of “justice”. They sought to make space for different perspectives on the meaning of justice, what it requires, and how it is attained. They recognized that the broader meaning of “justice” concerns how people live together peacefully, harmoniously despite their differences. In this sense, justice is relational and rooted in several fundamental principles - fairness, balance, decency, respect, and dignity between people within their communities and the larger society. Ultimately, justice extends to the environment. It requires that harms and injustices be repaired or ameliorated, as much as possible, by those responsible.
