CCJC Home
The Church Council on Justice and Corrections (CCJC) is a national faith-based coalition of eleven founding churches, incorporated in 1972. It is primarily by education, advocacy and community development initiatives that CCJC tries to foster healthier communities and crime prevention through social responsibility.
CCJC works with both multi-faith and non-religious partners and has achieved international recognition for its contributions to creative thinking about criminal justice. We have been promoting a different approach to justice and getting restorative justice on the agenda for over 30 years.
Our mandate, to assist those we serve to reflect about the nature of justice, to examine the impact of the present system on the lives of those it touches, and to search for pathways of change, is fulfilled in three fronts:
- Serving our Constituency
- Prophetic Community Education
- Witnessing on Public Policy
We invite you to read more about our projects and initiatives on this website, and to contact us should you require more information.
