"The CI toolkit is my go-to reference whenever I begin a new community accountability intervention. I've often remarked that it is the Bible for most facilitators I know."

"Creative Interventions is an invaluable survivor-centered resource that provides practical tools that use community accountability and transformative justice as viable options instead of the criminal justice system. We can respond to violence without using violence, and Creative Interventions shows us the way."

"Instead of writing about transformative justice as a theoretical nice idea, the Creative Interventions toolkit is packed with tools and readings to work through the real deal of interrupting violence without the cops...In a bold time when we are closer than ever to making abolition and defunding police and prisons real, this toolkit is more necessary than ever."
