Description
Restorative Justice is a process to involve, to the extent possible, those who have a stake in a specific offense and to collectively identify and address harms, needs, and obligations, in order to heal and put things as right as possible. It is an approach to justice that focuses on the needs of victims and offenders, instead of simply punishing the offender. The facilitators will provide an overview of Restorative Justice, its principles and values, discuss how the Judicial Affairs Office uses the processes, as well as explore how faculty can use this service to enhance their classroom environment and further student development.
