What is restorative justice?

Restorative justice (RJ) is a transformative approach to justice that aims to involve victims, offenders and other stakeholders in a voluntary, collaborative process. It seeks to find constructive ways for those directly affected by crime to come together and address the consequences of the harm caused.

Restorative Justice focuses on

recovery

our services

What we offer

Many victims feel excluded from the justice process. Restorative justice puts people who have been victims of crime in the spotlight and gives them a voice. Restorative justice offers victims a safe, respectful setting to process the crime and the consequences that have followed.
