Restorative justice processes can be a cornerstone of PeaceBuilding and essential skills for both young and older adults.
It focuses on repairing harm by encouraging accountability, empathy, and dialogue.

In local communities, restorative justice promotes healing and cooperation, reducing tensions and enhancing social cohesion.
Embracing restorative justice principles, can create a foundation for lasting peace and harmony in our personal lives and communities.

The power of truth telling
Restoring "Justice" in a relationship is about finding the right help and path to move forward.
Repairing the harm done, restoring if possible the broken relationship and ultimately rebuilding and strengethening the community.
Its about PeaceBuilding at all costs.
It's always seeking fairness, and balance.
When things go wrong, it's important to find solutions that benefit both partners, rather than placing blame.
Justice involves making things right and finding a way to resolve conflicts and challenges in a way that feels fair and respectful to both people involved.
To promote peacemaking, reconciliation and the resolution of conflict through the development and application of restorative justice values, principles and processes.
The principles of Restorative Justice encourage us to look at wrongdoing—even if it’s not criminal wrongdoing—as harm done to relationships and people.
Restorative Justice, however, challenges us to look beyond traditional, punitive responses to a deeper level of analysis and problem solving.
Who has been harmed?
How have relationships been affected?
How has this act impacted the community?
What harm has been done?
What is needed to repair this harm and to heal this broken relationship?
What is needed so the affected parties can move on from this in a positive way, with no lingering bad feelings?
What steps need to be taken to prevent future harm?
A collective grassroots approach to problem solving in the community
When a community can look beyond traditional, punitive responses to a deeper level of analysis and problem solving, that is when the mentorship of our high risk youth can thrive.

Fairness / equality
Fairness involves give-and -take in a relationship.
Taking turns; spending time with each other's friends; each having equal input in decision making and each person feeling heard.
Compromises are necessary, but they need to be done by both persons in the relationship.
