Fundación Amparo y Justicia is a Chilean non-profit organization that provides legal, psychological, and social support to families of child victims who die from injuries caused by sexual assault.

The document is an article that discusses the "standard account" versus the "irregular account" of the Canadian residential school system and colonization. The standard account portrays residential schools as well-intentioned institutions that aimed to educate Indigenous children, whereas the irregular account acknowledges the schools' role in cultural genocide and the severe trauma they inflicted. The article argues the standard account is a myth that obscures accountability and is deployed to distract from the truth about the devastating impacts of colonization and residential schools. It encourages readers to acknowledge this truth in order to work towards decolonization, justice, healing and ensuring the safety of Indigenous people.
This document discusses issues around euthanasia including being in a vegetative state or having mental damage, intensive care, dignity, ethics, and economic burdens. It also mentions the Genesis Social Welfare Foundation. The document expresses appreciation for listening on these important topics.
El documento describe las características principales del periodo medieval, incluyendo el sistema feudal, el papel de los nobles, las leyes que gobernaban a los campesinos y las prohibiciones impuestas. El sistema feudal determinaba cómo se distribuían las riquezas. Los nobles acaparaban la mayoría de las riquezas pero debían prometer lealtad. Las leyes estipulaban que los campesinos no poseían nada, todo pertenecía al rey. No podían abandonar el reino sin permiso.

This proposal outlines a plan for fully resolving the intergenerational hurt caused by Canada's residential school system in 3 key steps:
1. Provide compensation for all harms of the residential school system, not just legally recognized wrongs, including failures to educate, cultural and language loss, and collective damages.
2. Officially acknowledge that the residential school system constituted cultural genocide.
3. Establish a public truth and reconciliation process to educate all Canadians on the full impacts and abuses of the residential school system through survivor testimony and a large public relations campaign. This level of public exposure and understanding is needed for full healing.

The document discusses restorative justice as an alternative to traditional criminal justice. Restorative justice focuses on meaningful accountability and repairing the harms done to the victim. It allows the offender and victim to address the crime personally so the offender can witness the impact on the victim and their family. The document gives an example of a mother who met with her daughter's murderer five years after the crime to understand "why" and get closure. It also describes how the offender's mother later met with the victim's mother to take responsibility and acknowledge each other's losses in a healing way.
The document discusses various issues relating to social justice and social policy, including statistics about poverty, homelessness, discrimination, and hate crimes in the United States. It includes several quotes emphasizing the importance of equality, justice, and treating all people with dignity. The document advocates for social change and reform to address these challenges and protect the rights of the disadvantaged.
The Pennsylvania Prison Society recently assembled a panel of criminal justice experts, victim-advocates, treatment providers, former offenders and family members. The panel’s goal is to protect the public, reduce the prison population, support victims, rehabilitate offenders, and safely reintegrate ex-offenders into society by encouraging policies that are evidence-based, practical, fiscally responsible, humane, and legally defensible. These include education and prevention programs, risk-based assessments, treatment programs, and halfway or permanent housing for registered sex offenders.
Many of the panel’s findings are contrary to public opinion.
Informal justice structures are commonly used to address domestic violence cases in South Africa. The researcher conducted interviews with organizations providing alternative justice mechanisms in three communities. These organizations typically receive domestic violence cases that also involve financial disputes, as violence often stems from arguments over money, grants, or failure to pay maintenance. Rather than punish abusers, the informal structures focus on mediation and resolution. For many women, family or community organizations are the primary option due to barriers to the formal justice system, such as lack of money, transportation, and risk of leaving their families without support.
Care Leaver Survivor Self Help Guide States of Jersey - Hope & Recovery Survivors West Yorkshire
This document provides a guide for survivors of historical abuse in Jersey. It discusses the abuse scandal that emerged at Haut de la Garenne children's home and the wider investigation into institutional abuse. While the focus is on supporting victims, it also calls for specialist support services to be established. It emphasizes that the community must come together to acknowledge the abuse, apologize to victims, and help in their recovery and healing through "parallel justice" rather than just pursuing legal justice against abusers. The document advocates listening to survivors' insights to build a kinder society and care system for all.
The document discusses the benefits of exercise for mental health. Regular physical activity can help reduce anxiety and depression and improve mood and cognitive function. Exercise causes chemical changes in the brain that may help protect against mental illness and improve symptoms.

1) I personally believe that the death penalty should be uphel.docxSONU61709
1) I personally believe that the death penalty should be upheld and reinstated in places that it has been abolished. This is my belief based on my own sense of justice and what a civilized society should be. Prison is not a rehabilitation center. Though some prisons try, most prisons do not focus on rehabilitation. Prison is a punishment for wrong doing. You should be punished according to your crime. If someone kills another person, or they hurt someone in an extreme way, that person should be put to death. It is justice for those they hurt, their families, and punishment for the person who committed the terrible act. It is not cruel and unusual punishment. They are getting the punishment they deserve based on what they did. Sitting on death row for so many years is not a cruel and unusual punishment either. That is a right we give criminals in this country. Sitting in prison with their lives is due process. We give them the chance to appeal their cases. They should be thankful for that right which they would not get in other countries. It is ridiculous to me that this could be construed as cruel and unusual punishment.
2) The death penalty has recently become an increasingly controversial aspect within our justice system as many people have come to disagree with its implementation on both moral and monetary grounds, however, I personally believe that it is wholly necessary for our society to maintain the death penalty as a result of the role that it fulfills for both the government and the individual. The government utilizes the death penalty as a means of ensuring that extraordinarily immoral individuals are appropriately punished for their heinous actions and to instill a sense of authority within the minds of the populace that is intended to display the amount of control that the state truly wields in regards to your life. Were the government to abolish the death penalty, then there is a genuine potential for individuals that were victims ( either directly or indirectly) of these crimes to become disillusioned by their government's presumed complacency towards criminals, and, as a result of this, decide to murder these degenerates themselves. Although the effects of the death penalty upon crime rates are largely disputed, it should be evident that the death penalty is not a matter of deterring crime, but rather of maintaining the fragile balance between the citizens and the social contract that is present within our society, for it provides a sense of closure for those closest to the victim whilst simultaneously easing the collective conscious of society through ensuring that another dangerous individual's existence has been erased. While some might argue against the death penalty for its purported "immorality", it should be evident that there is a subset of the population that is either amoral or mentally unstable enough so as to present a constant threat to the whole of society were they ever released again. Although one could ...

This document discusses the relationship between homelessness and prostitution. It notes that many homeless women turn to prostitution as their only means of survival. While prostitution can help meet basic needs, it also exposes women to health risks like sexually transmitted diseases. The document outlines some policies and programs that aim to support homeless prostitutes, such as providing healthcare, income assistance, and shelters. However, it notes that not all who need help qualify for these resources. It also shares a personal story about a homeless woman who turned to prostitution and the risks she faced. Overall, the document seeks to provide context for why some homeless individuals engage in prostitution while also acknowledging the challenges and health issues involved.
