Youth Justice Committee/Restorative Justice Program

The Youth Justice Committee is a group of trained volunteer facilitators who facilitate restoratively based meetings between youth who have been referred and their victims. Restorative Justice is a way of viewing wrongdoing that puts the emphasis on repairing harm caused by conflict and crime using a collaborative and inclusive approach. It involves the participation of victims, the person who inflicted the harm and the community affected in finding solutions that seek to repair harm and promote harmony. Funding for this program is provided by the Ontario Ministry of Attorney General.
