​"Restorative justice is a way to build the experience of community which we want for our children and future generations. Building such a community creates a healthy environment that promotes a justice grounded in accountability and healing. Restorative justice requires cultivating a restorative community for the sake of its members.”
- Barb Toews


​​Thank you for your continued dedication to justice that heals.

RJP, Inc. works with those affected by conflict, providing support and education to encourage accountability, empathy, and reparation.

about restorative justice partners, INC.

RJP, Inc. brings the community together to support those representing the role of victims, offenders, families, and other key stakeholders in a restorative justice process to help those who have offended understand the implications of their actions and provide those who have been victimized a voice in the restitution.
In a restorative justice process, the person who has done harm takes responsibility for his/her actions and the person who has been harmed can take a central role in the process. Restorative processes, which foster dialogue, show the highest rates of victim satisfaction, true accountability by the offender, and reduced recidivism.

the experience

“Restorative justice is a process to involve, to the extent possible, those who have a stake in a specific  offense – victim, offender and the community – and to collectively identify and address harms, needs and obligations, in order to heal and put things as right as possible.” Howard Zehr

the results

“I chose to meet with the 16-year-old who burglarized my home. The meeting gave this young man the chance to rejoin the community as a productive member rather than become an outcast. He’s now on track to complete his high school education.”
