Marking Restorative Justice Month

November is Restorative Justice Month in Newfoundland and Labrador.

Relationships First Newfoundland and Labrador, in partnership with Community Justice Connect and First Light St. John’s Friendship Centre, hosted a proclamation signing last week, in recognition of Restorative Justice.

This year’s theme is Inspiring Collaboration and Igniting Social Change.

Restorative justice is a framework for engaging individuals, organizations, and communities in dialogue.

In addition to the signing, Relationships First Newfoundland and Labrador formally launched their provincial restorative justice scan document, Restorative Justice in Newfoundland and Labrador: a catalogue, summary, and history.
