What is restorative justice?
|
Restorative justice (RJ) is an opportunity to repair the harm caused to a person and/or business.
We want to learn how the person and/or business has been affected and support them through an RJ process. Participation is voluntary. The person who caused harm (PWCH) must take responsibility for the harm caused (crime or wrong-doing). We can then support the PWCH through an RJ process and being accountable. Everyone is prepared by an RJ Team to learn and discuss: “What happened?” “How were people affected?” “What can be done to repair the harm?” |
Our logo represents the persons harmed, persons who caused harm, guardians and
supporters, community and an RJ Team providing support to address the impact of wrong-doing. |
