Spanish term or phrase: redes de promotoría de justicia
De igual manera, el programa desarrollará habilidades y capacidades materiales en las comunidades para la articulación de redes de promotoría de justicia, conformadas por habitantes comunitarios capacitados en el marco jurídico de aseguramiento de derechos de la niñez, quienes en asocio con los operadores, garantizarán desde la comunidad acciones de prevención de la violencia, abuso y explotación, y en caso de presentarse hechos serán asesorados por los promotores y acompañados en la ruta de la denuncia hasta lograr la resolución de la misma.

My options so far are:

i. justice advocacy network, and

ii. network for justice advocacy.

Do they fit the context? or too literal?

Explanation:
I like your first option, justice advocacy network. It sounds right and seems to fit your context. "Promoción" is often translated as "advocacy" and the phrase "justice advocacy networks" seems quite common as a Google search will show.
