We invite you to sign on as a partner in any one of our current sectors.

As a Partner of the Charter for Compassion we would be pleased to include your group, organization or institution to join our “network of networks” to collectively bring an awareness of compassion and compassionate action to all that we do as we interact with other people and with our environment to create a more compassionately informed ecosystem.

Restorative justice is not a single program but a living movement that thrives through collaboration. Around the world, diverse organizations are working to heal harm, foster accountability, and strengthen communities by placing compassion at the center of justice. Our partners represent schools, faith communities, advocacy groups, arts initiatives, legal professionals, and grassroots movements—all united by a shared commitment to dignity, reconciliation, and healing.

From the Alabama Prison Arts + Education Project, which brings creativity and learning into correctional facilities, to the Tariq Khamisa Foundation, which transforms grief into peacebuilding, these partners embody restorative justice in action. Some, like the Restorative Justice Initiative in Brooklyn or the Niagara Alliance for Restorative Practices, focus directly on community-based restorative programs. Others, such as Nonviolence International, CAIR-DFW, and Placer People of Faith Together, bring restorative principles into advocacy, interfaith dialogue, and civic engagement.

This network is intentionally global—stretching from the United States to New Zealand, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, and the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Together, these organizations demonstrate how restorative justice can be adapted across cultures and contexts, serving as a bridge between personal transformation and systemic change.

By working alongside these partners, the Charter for Compassion affirms that justice rooted in compassion has the power to transform not only individual lives but also the systems and structures that shape our societies.
