Restorative Justice

Restorative processes bring those harmed by crime or conflict, and those responsible for the harm, into communication; enabling everyone affected by a particular incident to play a part in repairing the harm and finding a positive way forward. 

Restorative practice enables people to communicate effectively and positively to proactively prevent conflict, build relationships, and in repairing harm where conflicts have already arisen. Restorative practice is increasingly being used in:

 

  1. Schools

  2. Children’s services

  3. Workplaces 

  4. Hospitals

  5. Resolving residental disputes

  6. The community

  7. The criminal justice system

 

If needed, a formal facilitated restorative meeting can be held to enable individuals and groups to work together to improve their mutual understanding of an issue and jointly reach the best available solution. Restorative practice supports people to appreciate how their actions, words or activitives affect others. It enables people to take responsibility for their choices and actions. It enables people to reflect on how they interact with each other and consider how best to offer reparation, and prevent harm or conflict in future.

TK Vincent completed the Level 2 Restorative Practice Course with Restorative Solutions in 2012, enabling her to deliver formal Restorative Justice Meetings.
