Es hora de que dejemos de apoyarnos en la criminalización y la represalia en Estados Unidos. Debemos adoptar alternativas transformadoras que se basen en la curación y la dignidad humana.

Las cárceles y la policía no nos mantienen seguros. Aun con la tasa de encarcelamientos más alta del mundo, Estados Unidos se enfrenta a índices elevados de violencia armada. El AFSC aboga por los enfoques basados en la comunidad que funcionan mejor para crear responsabilidad, facilitar la curación y prevenir los daños.
