Crime Victims’ Experiences of Restorative Justice: A Listening Project

Three years ago, Just Outcomes traveled across Canada to listen to victims’ and survivors’ experiences with restorative justice. These included the voices of those suffering from property crime to the impact of homicide, from grieving family members to Indigenous youth. This project was funded through the Department of Justice, Canada—Centre for Policy on Victims Issues.

For those of you who have not had the opportunity to check out this report which reflects on the needs of those experiencing harm, how restorative justice did and didn’t meet those needs, and what pathways forward into healing can look like in policy and practice, please take a look: https://www.justice.gc.ca/eng/rp-pr/jr/cverj-vvpcj/p1.html.
