"[Avenues for Justice] may be a model to follow. It fills many of the roles of an effective criminal justice system, including punishment, counseling, and rehabilitation.”
“No program I have ever worked with or heard about has more credibility with attorneys or judges than the [Avenues for Justice].”
“At a time when the incarceration rate in America is the highest of any nation in the world…AFJ has questioned the status quo to become one of our most successful and cost-effective crime prevention programs.”
“Judges have come to rely upon Angel, his integrity and the [Avenues for Justice] as a truly meaningful and worthwhile alternative to incarceration.”
In celebration of Black History Month, Avenues for Justice (AFJ) will showcase the rich, creative expressions of a number of African American artists with our Participants.
In congruence with our HIRE UP job readiness curriculum, which was developed in-house by our Director of Court Advocacy, we are excited to partner with the New York Junior League (NYJL) to offer Steps to Success!
Our Participants deserve the most diverse and robust programming to center and ground themselves in their conversations around growth and wellness in the new year.
