Justice Fund Toronto is a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting communities in conflict with the law through three strategic priorities;
Justice Fund is dedicated to the social and economic wellbeing of communities from the Northwest & Northeast of the GTA. Violence in Toronto continues to be an increasing challenge and youth who experience poverty are impacted more by this violence than any other demographic.
We are built on the belief that when provided with opportunities to thrive, under-resourced communities become less violent, thus breaking the cycle of conflict.
The voices and lived experiences of communities in conflict with the law inform our decision-making process, the nature of our support, and our organizational growth. We see the potential for youth in conflict with the law to become leaders and contributors in their respective communities.
Our engagement and approach is trauma-informed. Wherever possible, we will ensure youth and their families receive adequate and appropriate mental health support.
We remain engaged with program participants and community partners for many years. By creating long-term relationships, we are working toward creating an ecosystem of support between alumni and community partners.
We are committed to collaborating with existing community ogranizations and partners to help them amplify their impact just as much as our own.
Our decision making is research- driven and outcomes-based to ensure our processes are respectful of community voices.
We will commit to reviewing our strategy regularly to ensure that it continues to meet the needs of the communities we serve.
Justice Fund is committed to building safer communities by providing flexible, long-term support and advocacy to communities in conflict with the law and to the community groups that serve them.
