Compiled by Cora Cypser, this is a booklet of short writings and excerpts from longer writings by a number of authors and sources. Her aim – based on her belief in human rights for all people and restorative justice for victims, offenders, and communities – was to provide useful additional resources to training materials produced by Departments of Probation, Correction, and Parole in their officer training programs. The various writings cover a number of topics, including the following: why people go to prison; addiction; reading handicaps; mental health; forgiveness; restorative justice; human rights; and building community.

When victims, offenders, and community members meet to decide how to do that, the results are transformational.
