$10/month — The Healing Beginning
43% of incarcerated Vermonters reoffend, compared to just 16% of those who complete restorative justice. A $10 monthly gift powers the conversations and circles that keep neighbors accountable and supported, turning cycles of harm into opportunities for repair.

$20/month — The Circle of Care
First-time restorative justice participants reoffend at less than 1%. A $20 monthly gift ensures more neighbors get that chance, replacing punishment with practices that build safety, trust, and lasting change for everyone involved.

$30/month — The Path Forward
Restorative justice works best when people have consistent support at turning points in their lives. A $30 monthly gift expands the circles and services that help participants repair harm, rebuild relationships, and rejoin community life with dignity.

$40/month — The Community Builder
Strong restorative justice requires a strong community behind it. A $40 monthly gift sustains the programs, staff, and volunteers who make healing possible, ensuring that every neighbor has access to accountability, repair, and a real path forward.

Healing creates safer communities than punishment ever could. The Community Circle is our monthly giving program where neighbors stand together to keep restorative justice strong in Hartford and across Vermont.

Your monthly gift makes change possible. In Vermont, 43% of people leaving prison reoffend. For those who complete restorative justice programs, that number drops to just 16%. For first-time participants, it is less than 1%. When you join The Community Circle, you are investing in hope, second chances, and lasting repair.

Every Gift Strengthens Community

Give monthly, one time, or in any amount. Your support keeps restorative justice strong in Hartford and helps neighbors repair harm, rebuild trust, and move forward together.
