JustSpeak is a people-powered movement for transformational change of the criminal justice system towards a fair, just and flourishing Aotearoa.
We work to achieve long-term, systemic change by shifting government, societal focus and resources away from police, punishment and prisons and towards prevention, restoration, accountability, community, whānau well-being and care.
Our vision is of a society that gives everyone what they need while caring for each other and the planet. An Aotearoa New Zealand where everyone has a roof over their head, food on the table and time to spend with loved ones. A nation where we’ve reimagined justice to be about health and not handcuffs, and where we’ve closed the last prison - for good.
