About Us
Not on my watch.
Founded to answer the cry for justice by bringing reformation from city to city.
Our Founder
It started with a woman who was set free.
Before she was a pastor, an author, and a founder, Heather Schott was a teenager caught between two worlds — half her childhood in a Christian home, the other half surrounded by drugs, alcohol, and abuse. By sixteen, she was coping the only way she knew how.
A night of heavy drug use ended in an overdose. She was left for dead in an abandoned apartment; a doctor later told her she should not be alive. Months later, a pastor's kid named Landon invited her to church — and for the first time in her life, she felt peace wash over her like a wave. God delivered her from addiction that day, and that freedom became her life's mission. In 2019 she and Landon planted Mercy Culture Church; a year later, The Justice Reform was born.
Heather Schott · Founder, The Justice Reform
“I felt this peace like a wave wash over me — the first time I'd felt peace like that in my whole life. This is why I live for freedom today: because I experienced God's freedom.”
Our Story
From a cry, a movement.
The Justice Reform is born as a house vision of Mercy Culture — a group of reformers unwilling to stay silent about modern-day slavery, giving their yes to fight for freedom .
The Justice Reform announces The Justice Residence: a first-of-its-kind, long-term restoration home for up to 100 survivors of human trafficking, on the Mercy Culture property.
After a two-year fight, Fort Worth City Council approves the 100-bed residence in December 2024 — clearing the way to break ground.
Construction begins in Fort Worth, TX.
The first Justice Residence will welcome survivors of human trafficking into the home and begin their journey of rest, healing and restoration.

The movement, in motion.
OUR LADY JUSTICE
Every element carries meaning.
The torch, the olive leaves, the crown, the hands, and the signet ring — each tells the story of light overcoming darkness.
