Hello
It is now two months since the re-launch of the Community Justice Portal (www.cjp.org.uk). Apart from bringing you the latest news, publications and events details from right across the Community Justice Sector, here's a few things the Portal has to offer which you might not be aware of.

COMMUNITY JUSTICE GLOSSARY - http://www.cjp.org.uk/glossary/
A useful reference source listing some of the common acronyms and abbreviations used in the Community Justice sector. Know of an acronym or abbreviation which isn't listed? - let us know using the comments facility on the page.
MOMENTS IN PROBATION - http://www.cjp.org.uk/publications/archive/moments-in-probation/
The Moments in Probation were first published daily on the Community Justice Portal during our Century of Probation year. The Moments have now been packaged into an excellent publication by Shaw & Sons. This series of short essays represents a reflective testimony to the rich diversity of the probation ideal and will make stimulating reading for those who work within probation, as well as the wider criminal justice system, and the academic community; in fact, anyone who wants a better understanding of the history of this modernised and culturally transformed service.
Usually retailing for £17.50 per copy, members of the Community Justice Portal can purchase a copy for only £12.50 until December 31st.
TELL US WHAT YOU THINK OF THE CJP - http://www.cjp.org.uk/user-survey
We are keen to ensure the Portal is meeting the needs of its user community, and would therefore appreciate a few minutes of your time to give us your opinions on the content and services the Portal offers, and let us know if there is anything else you think we could be including.
Best wishes from the Community Justice Portal team
