Restorative Justice

Restorative Justice (RJ) provides all parties involved in a crime (person harmed and person responsible) with an opportunity to explore what happened. RJ services are facilitated meetings which allow those harmed to ask questions and have a say in how they would like the harm caused by crime to be addressed. It also gives the person responsible for the harm a way to discuss the incident and hear the effect it has had on the person harmed. Participation is entirely voluntary.

Sacro offers a number of restorative justice services across Scotland and many Sacro services apply restorative practices to resolve conflict and address harm.
