With Restorative Justice processes, success is measured not by how much punishment is given, but by how much harm has been repaired or prevented. Restorative Justice offers a multitude of benefits, from the empowerment of individuals to cost savings for organizations and communities.  

3 Principles of Restorative Practices  

1. Acknowledge and repair the harm caused and revealed by wrongdoing.
2. Encourage appropriate responsibility for addressing needs and repairing harm caused.
3. Direct contribution to the resolution by those impacted, including the community.

Restorative Practices are a system of principles and processes that build and  sustain a culture of kindness, respect, responsibility and justice.  This is achieved through emphasizing the importance of trusting relationships as central to building community and repairing relationships when harm has occurred.
