Mission Statement

RESTORATIVE JUSTICE OF LOUISVILLE IS AN EXEMPLARY PROGRAM THAT SERVES YOUNG PEOPLE WHO COME IN CONTACT WITH THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM. TRADITIONALLY, THE CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM ASKS WHAT LAWS HAVE BEEN BROKEN AND WHAT PUNISHMENT IS DESERVED BY THE OFFENDER. RESTORATIVE JUSTICE ASKS WHAT HARM HAS BEEN DONE, WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR REPAIRING THAT HARM, AND HOW CAN THAT HARM BE REPAIRED? WE FOCUS ON MAKING AMENDS, REPAIRING HARM AND BUILDING BRIGHTER FUTURES. THE RESTORATIVE JUSTICE PROCESS ALLOWS VICTIMS OF CRIME TO PARTICIPATE MORE FULLY IN THE RESOLUTION OF THE OFFENSE THAT HAS BEEN DONE WITH A FOCUS ON SEEKING SOLUTIONS AND MAKING AMENDS. RESTORATIVE JUSTICE HAS AN IMPRESSIVE RECORD IN JEFFERSON COUNTY THAT DEMONSTRATES THAT YOUNG PEOPLE WHO PARTICIPATE IN THE PROCESS ARE ABOUT HALF AS LIKELY TO COMMIT A FUTURE OFFENSE AND THAT VICTIMS OF CRIMES FEEL MORE FULLY ENGAGED IN A PROCESS OF TRUE RESTORATION.
