Transformative Justice (TJ) is a policy framework and approach to responding to violence, harm and abuse. TJ seeks to respond to violence without creating more violence and/or to engage in harm reduction to decrease violence. Transformative justice responses and interventions 1) do not rely on the state; 2) do not reinforce or perpetuate violence such as oppressive norms or vigilantism; and most importantly, 3) actively cultivate things that prevent violence like healing, accountability, resilience, and safety for everyone involved.” – Mia Mingus [1]
