The Virginia Holistic Justice Initiative

This September, the Floret Coalition is supporting The Virginia Holistic Justice Initiative. The Virginia Holistic Justice Initiative is working to end the incarceration of nonviolent people. By creating a holistic, supportive intervention model, they aim to reduce recidivism and the significant human and financial costs of incarceration.

“We guide & accompany our non-violent clients through engagements with the local resources they need to address circumstances & recidivism risks pulling them back into the criminal justice system.”

The VHJI offers one-on-one casework services to help people access pathways out of the system, from education and training, to legal aid and access to mental health care.

To learn more about The Virginia Holistic Justice Initiative, the clients they serve visit their website.
