Restorative Justice Trust
Restorative Justice is a way of responding to the offence and its effects that makes the people affected by the crime the focus. Restorative Justice creatively addresses the trauma of crime by recognising that victims have many needs which are not met in the current system. While victim pain is a primary concern of restorative justice, victim and offender restoration is a priority. Offenders are made accountable at face-to-face meetings with the victim. Support people are invited who assist the parties in achieving reconciliation.
Restorative Justice tries to achieve accountability, restoration, and reintegration.
