Description:
This project aims to build New Brunswick's capacity to provide Restorative Justice (RJ) to youth who are in conflict with the Criminal Justice system, while ensuring the approach takes into account the specific need of Indigenous youth. The activities will take place over a three-year period and will achieve three primary objectives: 1) conduct research and consultations on youth-focused RJ models to support the development of RJ training tools, resources and guidelines for delivering RJ to youth; 2) increase youth access to RJ in the province through coordinating the delivery of multiple RJ training sessions (in English or French) and ensure that the approach meets the needs of Indigenous youth; 3) hold a symposium with RJ practitioners and other stakeholder groups related to youth justice to support relationship building, as well as promoting and obtaining feedback on the proposed RJ tools and resources specific to youth.
