PROMOTING JUSTICE FOR VICTIMS
Victim Sensitivity Program
We facilitate mediations when victims of juvenile crime express a strong desire to meet face to face with juvenile offenders and program personnel determine that it would be safe, appropriate, and useful for all parties involved. Mediation fosters restoration and reconciliation by giving victims the opportunity to inform the offending juveniles of the personal pain and financial losses they suffered because of the juvenile's criminal actions and by giving juvenile offenders the opportunity to make amends directly to their victims.
For victims who do not want a face-to-face meeting with juvenile offenders, we write and file court orders of restitution to ensure that the victims' losses are quantified and to allow for the legal collection of restitution
