The Community Justice project works to provide a source of comfort for prisoners in nearby correctional facilities. Railey's vision for the Community Justice project is to inspire more students to think about our justice system through a restorative justice lens. She hopes to provide support to incarcerated individuals through book drives, a pen pal program, and various crafting/ fundraising events.
