CJC provides trained mediators to initiate, monitor, and completed 140 referrals through 565 Community Justice Conferences. These consist of a series of meetings between the responsible party/ parties (offender), harmed party/parties (victim), and their supportive individuals, with the assistance of a mediator to address harm, its impact, and an opportunity to make things as right as possible. An agreement is established and signed by the responsible party and harmed party/parties.

On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
