General Interest What is Restorative Justice?
Restorative Justice is a different approach to those involved and affected by crime than the traditional judicial system provides.
• Restorative Justice helps victims, survivors, offenders, and communities to take a pro-active approach to crime and engages all parties involved in the healing process after a crime has been committed.
• Restorative Justice can be utilized in crimes of severe violence or non-violent crimes as well as with juvenile offenders.
