LIFE COACHING & COUNSELING

What does it really mean to seek long-term solutions for each defendant, while being mindful of the interests of victims and society?

In the case of a defendant engaged in unacceptable (criminal) behavior, the Utah Justice Foundation seeks a solution that will solve the CAUSE of the criminal behavior. The reason? We have an objective for the defendant to exit the criminal justice system permanently!

Sounds simple, right? Yes it does sound simple, but in fact it is the much more difficult road to travel. It is far easier to put the offenders in jail and make them pay hefty fines, and then hope that they "learn their lesson."

The current criminal justice system tends to focus most on punishment because it's easier, less time consuming, and perceived to be less risky and expensive. The primary problem with this approach is the focus is not on the CAUSE of the criminal behavior.

Many other organizations simply direct defendants where THEY wish. We do not!

At the Utah Justice Foundation, we seek to use non-judgmental and forward-thinking approachs to allow each defendant to realize his or her true desires for a life in accord with societal norms! Then, together, we design a program for the defendant to achieve what he or she wants for his or her life in addition to paying any debts owed to victim(s) and to society.

The Utah Justice Foundation finds that LIFE COACHING & COUNSELING can be the best type of solution in many situations where an individual's mis-behavior has overtaken or consumed their life to the point where a "coach" is required to get back on track. There are numerous programs available and it is important to carefully consider each program and whether it is a "match" for the particular individual. We have found that it may take a psycological evaluation by a reputable professional to determine the best program for the offender's particular background and situation.

Again, the objective is for each and every defendant to exit the criminal justice system permanently - without repeating offences - thereby achieving long-term benefits for the defendant, for law enforcement, for the courts, and for society and the citizens of Utah!
