Organization Information

Mission Statement

Parallel Justice recognizes that the criminal justice system is designed to deal with offenders, and can fall short of meeting the needs of victims of crime. Parallel Justice strives to reach out to people who have been victims of crime such as theft, property crime and assault. We ask victims to describe the issues they face as direct result of crime. Parallel Justice offers support, resources and validation regardless of whether an offender is caught or proscecuted.

Description

Burlington Parallel Justice volunteers call victims of crime, listen to their concerns, offer emotional support, and refer them to resources provided by the Parallel Justice Resource Bank or other community agencies.
