This is one area where restorative justice approaches get it right by focusing on the needs of victims and how the offender can take responsibility to repair the harm, which includes ensuring that they don’t re-offend. Unfortunately, victim’s needs are shunted aside in the court process. That can result in them getting stuck in their pain and desire for vengeance. Restorative justice offers an opportunity for them to have a constructive voice and the possibility of healing. |
