Dr. Carey speaks on 'Restorative Justice' at CU KHIPP forum By Josh Christian, news from Campbellsville University CAMPBELLSVILLE, KT- Dr. Galen Carey, vice president of government relations for the National Association of Evangelicals, spoke on Criminal Justice Reform at the Kentucky Heartland Institute on Public Policy forum, in the Badgett Academic Support Center Banquet Hall, 110 University DR , Campbellsville, KY, on February 24, 2015, on the campus of Campbellsville University. "Many of us know someone who is or has been in prison," Carey said. Carey highlighted the issues of the criminal justice system today. According to Carey, $20,000-$30,000 is spent on every prisoner behind bars. Further, the incarceration rate has increased 400 percent since the 1950's and 200 thousand children are left without parents every year. "The system looks like it is giving up on people," Carey said. The criminal justice system focuses on the government and offender, argued Carey. Instead, Carey suggests the system focus on the victim and offender. He also emphasized the importance of offender restoration. Offender restoration is successfully restoring the offender back into society. The National Association of Evangelicals focuses on bringing Christian morals and ethics into the political realm. The association also educates Christians on their political responsibility as citizens of America and believers in Christ. Carey spoke of the rights of Christians to be engaged in the public policy process during CU's chapel service in the Ransdell Chapel on February 25, KY. This story was posted on 2015-03-09 17:53:08
