With support from the California Arts Council, COMMUNITY WORKS WEST INC will engage a local artist who has been impacted by incarceration to create a mural in support of Community Works’ Restorative Hub in San Francisco. At the CW Restorative Hub, youth, adults and families will receive services and learn skills that help them heal from the impacts of system involvement and, create a path to healthy sustainable lives with a focus on repairing and reconnecting relationships with themselves, their families, and communities.
Organization Summary
Community Works West is the premiere provider of restorative justice programs in the San Francisco Bay Area, launching in 1997 with the first restorative justice program in a county jail and the first pre-charge diversion program for youth in San Francisco and Alameda counties. Our restorative justice, arts, and human service programs include anti-violence, job readiness, batterers’ intervention, and family-strengthening services for individuals, families, and communities affected by incarceration. Our restorative arts programs provide a safe and creative space for individuals to overcome the trauma of incarceration.
