Asbury Park TJP - Community Safety Units
“UNTIL WE ARE ALL FREE, WE ARE NONE OF US FREE.” - EMMA LAZARUS
Please visit our website to see what Asbury Park Transformative Justice Project is all about!
We are currently raising money to start TJP's Community Public Safety Units:
The Asbury Park Transformative Justice Project (APTJP) believes that diverse communities need diverse initiatives in order to serve the various needs of its members. We understand that when people are in need or feel unsafe, they can call the police, but we also understand that due to systemic racism, sexism, classism, ableism, homophobia and transphobia, not everyone in our community feels safe calling the police.
APTJP is creating community-run public safety units; this would give our community members an alternative to calling the police. All members of the community-run safety units, both professional social workers and volunteers, would be self-identified feminists (against all oppressions) trained to respond, specifically, to mental health issues and other non-emergency crises with care, kindness, de-escalation, and with appropriate support to work through the difficult situations community members might find themselves in.
In addition to funding, we are looking for volunteer social workers, community volunteers willing to be trained to be part of the public safety units, fundraiser and grant writers, lawyers and anyone who would like to help grow this community empowerment program.

Transformative Justice Community Relations
TJP is currently offering trainings and guidance for communities and organizations interested in transformative justice processes. We offer our five years of on-the-ground experience in the newer transformative justice field along with many years of grassroots education we have engaged in ourselves with transformative justice and abolition practices. We help facilitate transformative justice processes concerning sexual violence, community relations, and domestic violence, giving orgainzations and communities tools outside of the criminal justice system to solve and heal injustices in your/our communities.

ASBURY PARK TRANSFORMATIVE JUSTICE PROJECT
VISION
We put our belief that people are not the worst thing theyʼve ever done into action by providing intentional housing, empowering organizing trainings, job skills and mental health counseling to people of all walks of life returning from prison. Our vision is to transform the way people view crime and rehabilitation: from one of individual choice, to one of collective responsibility and accountability.
MISSION
The Asbury Park Transformative Justice Project (APTJP) mission is to drastically reduce recidivism by bringing an end to the victimization and powerlessness inherent in todayʼs criminal justice system by using a transformative justice collective model.
