A Global Hub for Supervision Practices
The concept for the SAW Project was born at the 2nd World Congress on Community Corrections in 2015, when SAW Founder Julie Truschel interviewed supervision professionals from around the world about what they were doing in community corrections. Today, the SAW Project continues this collaborative effort to review, share and learn from experts around the world so we can improve models, outcomes, communities, and lives. The SAW Project offers a global hub where industry professionals can learn, connect, and share insights. See what we are doing today!
Restorative practices are growing across Minnesota—and so is the need for connection, investment, and community-led support. This State of Restorative Practices in Minnesota (2025) report offers stories, data, and lessons on survivor-led justice and healing-centered accountability.
By embracing the power of the circle and dismantling inequity, these practices ensure that compassionate justice becomes a local reality for everyone. Together, we are building a system rooted in restoration rather than just punishment 🌿.

Justice is most effective when it is accessible and rooted in the community. Colombia’s 🇨🇴 "Casas de Justicia" and "Centros de Convivencia Ciudadana" are transforming how citizens interact with the legal system—bridging the gap through alternative dispute resolution and crime prevention.
By providing a centralized space for conflict mediation and social support, these centers help rebuild the social fabric and ensure that justice is a local reality for everyone.

Individualized justice is the key to ending recidivism. 🛡️ The Safer Supervision Act restores focus and balance—prioritizing accountability, rehabilitation, and the safe reintegration of individuals into their communities.
By moving away from "one-size-fits-all" approaches and instead incentivizing success through early termination for those who follow the rules, we can better focus resources on public safety and genuine transformation.
