  • Circles of Support and Accountability: the Need to Make Room for More Victim/Survivor Input
    1 Circles of Support and Accountability: The Need to Make Room for More Victim/Survivor Input Brief Bio and Program Background: The writer, David Dyck, served as the first Project Coordinator of Circles of Support and Accountability (CSA) in Winnipeg, Manitoba. CSA is a Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) initiative designed to enhance the safety of the community and reduce the risk of re-offence by released sex offenders. CSA volunteers form "Circles" who aid in the reintegration process of “Core Members” by offering them social support and encouraging them to act responsibly in the community. David has since relocated to Halifax, Nova Scotia where he continues to act as a resource person in training and consultation for CSA and other restorative justice initiatives. If you are interested in learning more about CSA, please contact: Andrea Tu or Evan Heise Mennonite Central Committee Ontario Toronto Office, 6 Trinity Square Toronto, ON M5G 1B1 Canada Ph: (416) 596-9341 Email: [email protected] You can reach the author of the article at: David Dyck 403-2540 Maynard St. Halifax, NS B3K 3V5 Canada Ph: (902) 423-1124 Email: [email protected] 1. Introduction: Prior to joining Circles of Support and Accountability (CSA) as a staff person in January, 1999, I wrote a research paper as a part of my graduate studies to familiarize myself with this relatively new Canadian initiative. While my overall assessment of CSA’s work was positive, I also made several broad suggestions regarding ways that the initiative might be improved. One of the specific issues I identified at that time was the need for CSA to seek out more concrete involvement of the victim/survivor community in the planning and carrying out of their work.

  • An Analysis of Mennonite Central Committee's Work in East Africa
    A Mennonite Peace? An Analysis of Mennonite Central Committee’s Work in East Africa EMILY WELTY* Abstract: This article analyzes the ways that Mennonite Central Committee demonstrates distinctively Mennonite understandings of peacemaking and argues that both in terms of content—that is, the particular ways of defining peace—as well as in its programs, M.C.C. works in a distinctly Mennonite way within the context of other international faith-based nongovernmental organizations. Through an ethnographic analysis of M.C.C.’s country programs in East Africa the essay argues that M.C.C.’s peacebuilding and development work have remained consistent with the deeper Mennonite understandings of the theology and practice of peace. Mennonite peacemaking is rooted in a unique historical and theological heritage. Traditionally, Mennonites have understood peace to be at the heart of Christian discipleship and God’s kingdom on earth. Peacemaking is also the work for which Mennonite Central Committee is best known by other international relief and development non-governmental organizations. But is this reputation justified? In an age of N.G.O. professionalization and the pressures for institutions to conform, is it possible for a faith-based N.G.O. to maintain its distinctive denominational identity while also carrying out its peacebuilding work in an effective manner? This article analyzes the ways M.C.C. demonstrates distinctively Mennonite understandings of peacemaking and argues that both in terms of content—that is, the particular ways of defining peace—as well as in its programs, M.C.C. works in a distinctly Mennonite way within the context of other international faith-based N.G.O.s.

Warnera*, Elizabeth Beckb and Mary L. Ohmerb aDepartment of Criminal Justice, Georgia State University, Atlanta, Georgia, United States; bSchool of Social Work, Georgia State University, Atlanta, Georgia, United States TaylorGCJR_A_517960.sgm10.1080/10282580.2010.517960Contemporary1028-2580Original20101340000002010BarbaraWarnerwarner@gsu.edu; and& Article Francis (print)/1477-2248Francis Justice [email protected] Review (online) Much of what is at the heart of social disorganization theory’s approach to neighborhood crime prevention has been ignored in favor of policies that are more closely associated with deterrence and rational choice theories. Specifically, ideas of informal social control and collective efficacy have often been translated into policies of community surveillance and the reporting of suspicious behaviors to the police. While these policies may make neighborhoods less attractive to offenders because they create higher certainty levels of recognition, and subsequently arrest, social disorganization theory, at its heart, suggests crime prevention policies of a very different nature: policies that are more closely associated with restorative justice, re-integrative shaming and peacemaking criminology. These associations are highlighted and provide a conceptual model for a community crime prevention program that is more consistent with the underlying nature of social disorganization theory. Keywords: social disorganization theory; restorative justice; community crime prevention; informal social control; community programs Introduction The revitalization of Shaw and McKay’s (1942/1969) social disorganization theory over the last three decades paralleled an increased enthusiasm for building police community partnerships (such as Neighborhood Watch and Community Oriented Policing) to prevent and control crime.

Restoring confidence in JusticeBy Michael WilliamsThis book is a great way to approach reaching justice. The principles of RJ can be used in all types of conflict and offense, from parenting, to school discipline, to adult conflict in the workplace and off course as an alternative to the traditional way of handling criminal offenses. I do wish their were some examples of the encounter conversations or discussion on how long these processes can take, but it would have been a much longer book then. This book does a good job at staying focused on explaining the foundations and guiding principles of RJ instead of Telling people how it should be practiced.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.

This fall, 2013, is a significant season for me: I’m honored to receive this award - and on India’s national holiday celebrating his birthday! It is also my first semester in many years that I have not taught; I’m moving into semi- retirement. Finally, it is the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington, and also my departure, as a 19-year-old sophomore-to-be, for Atlanta to enter Morehouse College, an historically African American college, from which I graduated in 1966. Recently, on the actual day of this anniversary, I had the opportunity to talk with Dr. Vincent Harding who was a significant influence on my decision to go to Morehouse and my resulting commitment to justice. As a Mennonite, I grew up in a family and tradition of nonviolence and peacemaking, and knew something of Gandhi. But it was at Morehouse, during the civil rights movement, that I engaged more deeply. So my understanding of the Gandhian tradition was mediated through the work of Dr.

  • Shared Legacies: Narratives of Race and Reconciliation by Descendants of Enslavers and the Enslaved
    Shared Legacies: Narratives of Race and Reconciliation by Descendants of Enslavers and the Enslaved Jill Strauss Introduction1 In August 2017, the white supremacist, nationalist, self-proclaimed ‘Alt Right’ travelled from all over the United States to a rally at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville. They marched with their faces uncovered, and while carrying burning torches, swastikas, Confederate flags, and weapons, Klansman clashed with anti-racist counter-demonstrators; many people were injured and one person died. During their demonstration, Neo-Nazis chanted anti-gay slurs, “Black lives do not matter,” and Jews will not replace them. This was an extreme but by no means isolated incident. Atlantic Monthly writer Ta-Nehisi Coates has called for a national "collective introspection" in his seminal article “The Case for Reparations.”2 Many of us would like to have this difficult conversation because we recognize the connections between slavery in the past and racism in the present, but we feel we need guidance to initiate and facilitate the conversation. Others of us have been taught in school and through the media to think and experience our lives as individual disconnected events rather than understanding them as interrelated in terms of “causality, significance, and consequence.”3 Therefore, it can be difficult to engage people on 1 Support for this chapter was provided by a PSC-CUNY Award, jointly funded by The Professional Staff Congress and The City University of New York. 2 Ta-Nehisi Coates.
