Crime is indicative of a broken relationship; therefore, Restorative Justice seeks to repair the harm caused by crime. It is about rebuilding relationships. A central practice of restorative justice is a collaborative decision-making process that includes harmed parties, people who have caused harm, and others who are seeking active accountability. Instead of asking what law was broken, who broke it, and what punishment is warranted (as the current CJ system does), restorative justice asks who was harmed and how do we repair that harm- to the community, the victim, and the offender.
