Our Purpose
What ACWIP is All About...
Vision Statement...
It is our vision that all persons who are impacted by the
criminal justice system will be treated with dignity and respect, and that
restorative justice will be the goal of all parties. Everyone in society
will recognize that they have an important role in the process, and
rehabilitation will be a primary focus of the criminal justice system. We
envision a future where female offenders will be helped to maintain their
families and develop strong relationships with their children rather than having
their families destroyed as a consequence of contact with the criminal justice
system...
Objectives...
We work to bring fairness and equity into the criminal
justice system and to shift the focus to treatment and restorative justice.
We work to educate the public, develop new legislation, implement new
programs, and develop resources for incarcerated women.
