“ Transformational and inspirational.” “ Wow, that was absolutely amazing and inspiring” are a few things we have heard about this week's episode so far! If you’re feeling defeated this week, this podcast might just be the healing salve you’re looking for.
During our time together, we explored the possibilities within the Sequential Intercept Model (SIM) to create a justice system that centers healing and community. We had the privilege of hearing Honorable Judge Dan Healy's story of how he began and was led to study and practice law. We heard how justice can shift from a punitive approach to one focused on human connection and dignity and by rethinking decision points in the system—whether at initial hearings or through community partnerships—we uncovered ways to address the root causes of behavior, offering paths toward rehabilitation and accountability rather than punishment.
We discussed partnerships in supporting whole-person care, from mental health to housing services, and why trauma-informed practices are essential for building trust and community resilience. Judge Healy’s insights reveal how collaboration between courts, community services, and the individuals involved can lead to meaningful, long-term change.
Join us in our healing-centered movement!
