The Neighborhood Justice Center
The Neighborhood Justice Center (NJC) was developed to help citizens peacefully resolve disputes through mediation. It offers an alternative to traditional court hearings. The Neighborhood Justice Center has been providing mediation services in the District Attorney’s Office since 1980. Statistics have shown that disputing parties can successfully resolve their own disputes with the assistance of a mediator 80-85% of the time. Allowing disputing parties to mediate saves the taxpayers thousands of dollars and leaves the courtrooms open for more serious crimes. In 2022, The Neighborhood Justice Center received 455 referrals. Of those referrals, 255 participated in mediation, and approximately 70% reached a settlement. $26,469.85 was collected in restitution and returned to victims.
