Restorative & Transformative Justice HUB
"Reimagining Juvenile Justice"
One of the goals of the Restorative & Transformative Justice Hub (RTJ HUB) is to assist young people with resolving conflict, before young people touch the justice system, and connecting youth/young adults (ages 10-26 years old) to a variety of community resources. The supports are intended to break cycles of incarceration, poverty & trauma.
The HUB is a 2-year pilot program focused on restorative & transformative justice with the goal of preventing youth involvement in the juvenile justice system while enabling them to become successful & productive members of Camden City. The purpose of the HUB is to resolve local conflicts through dialogue & referral linkages instead of punitive measures, such as locking youth in detention centers. At the current phase of the RTJ HUB, supports are for Camden City residents only.
HUB Hours: Monday-Friday 8am to 8pm | Saturday: 10a-5p
