Background and Goals
For 35 years, TX CURE has organized prisoners, their families, and others to work for Texas criminal justice laws, policies, and practices that recognize and affirm the humanity of all persons, achieve healing and reconciliation, and are effective in reducing crime and violence.
Goals:
  • TO EDUCATE policy makers and the public on the value of preventative, rehabilitative, and restorative policies and programs in crime prevention, and on the relation between unmet human needs and crime and violence.
  •  TO INFORM offenders, victims, families, and other interested persons about resources available to those undergoing the effects of crime and violence.
  •  TO ADVOCATE for laws, policies, and programs that are effective in the prevention of crime and violence, that promote healing and reconciliation, and that contribute to the successful reintegration of offenders into their communities.
  • TO PROVIDE FORUMS in which victims, offenders, policy makers, criminal justice personnel, and citizens can communicate, consult, and work together toward effective solutions to crime and violence.
