“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.”
—Mariame Kaba, author of New York Times Bestseller We Do This ’Til We Free Us
“This toolkit is essential reading for anyone interested in transformative justice and community responses to violence. It is accessible, concrete, thorough and filled with years and years of lessons…. The CI Toolkit offers practical information and practices for transformative justice/community accountability, without shying away from the very real challenges and complexities of this work. The importance of Creative Interventions' work cannot be overstated enough.”
—Mia Mingus, founder of Bay Area Transformative Justice Collective (BATJC)
“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.”
—Leah Lakshmi Piepzna-Samarasinha, author of Care Work
“The Creative Interventions Toolkit is one of the clearest and most practical resources to build transformative justice and community accountability skills that our movements have…. If you want to deepen your practice, through one resource, start here.”
—Ejeris Dixon, co-editor of Beyond Survival
“The Creative Interventions Toolkit is the in-depth practical guide that people looking to come together to support people experiencing violence need. It provides a roadmap for doing this important work, helping groups anticipate and navigate common problems. It is thorough and clear, and so essential to building the world we want.”
—Dean Spade, author of Normal Life and Mutual Aid
