Form 990, Part I, Line 1 Hawai'i Friends of Restorative Justice's (HFRJ) mission is to increase overall wellbeing of individuals and communities commonly neglected by traditional systems. The continued objectives of our work are to develop evidence-based knowledge on how individuals can access justice, especially those harmed by injustice and wrongdoing, and how those who caused harm can learn from and recover from harmful behavior. HFRJ works primarily with community-based organizations, schools, courts, prisons and to find ways to assist individuals harmed by injustice and to increase emotional and physical healing. HFRJ in 2025 is working to find ways public schools can use alternatives to punishment and retribution to achieve discipline to prevent the school-to-prison pipeline problem. We collaborate with the community and individuals to promote research-identifying variables that ultimately reduce repeat crime, substance disorder, and increase healing from injustice. We've described our work in over 50 academic papers and two books in mostly peer reviewed publications. We work to increase evidence-based knowledge of what helps people heal and rehabilitate and strengthen communities. We disseminate the information through our published papers. Our income is mainly by grants, individual donations and small contracts. Current projects include: 1. Training community members how to facilitate a restorative reentry planning process we developed; 2. Working with the Hawai'i State Department of Education to promote restorative whole schools and two schools in Honolulu for future projects; 3. Providing a scholarship program for women in college who were formerly incarcerated and college correspondence courses for two currently incarcerated women; 4. Working with a coalition to stop or stall the state of Hawai'i's plans to build a new billion dollar plus jail on Oahu that has more beds than the one it is to replace-our state has not tried to provide reentry or diversion services to decrease the need for jail and prison beds-our incarcerated population read at the 4-6 grad level; 5. Working on research concerning the school-to-prison pipleline problem; 6. Providing a free reentry legal resource that covers the legal needs for people returning to the community after incarceration; 7. Providing a free family law clinic at the Hawai'i state women's prison; 8. On March 27, 2025 we will provide the 16th annual parole completion celebration in our Supreme Court, which the Chief Justice Mark Recktenwald will attend along with about 50 others; 9. Working on papers describing our education project at the women's prison that helped 26 women earn GEDs in three years and others become college students while they were incarcerated or after release - in the last 6 months we finalized two papers for an international restorative justice encyclopedia.
