A Brief Overview of Restorative Justice Hub Model RJ Hub Mission

Through a restorative justice philosophy, Restorative Justice Hubs (RJ Hubs) create safe and healthy community spaces where disconnected and court-involved youth experience belonging, opportunity, and positive transformation.

Vision

Restorative Justice Hubs create healthy and nurturing communities where youth are welcomed and supported. Youth and families are engaged in prosocial, hospitable, and supportive ways that enable youth to express themselves and be supported in becoming responsible members of their community.

This vision is realized through:

Using restorative justice philosophy and practices as the foundation for the RJ Hubs

Recognizing that violence causes trauma and trauma causes violence; hurt people hurt people

Community members taking the lead in creating safe and welcoming spaces within the community

Engaging and collaborating with community and system resources to support the needs of youth and family

Building, restoring, and strengthening relationships

Rooting hospitality and accompaniment in the mission

Promoting the youth’s increased connection to and sense of belonging to the community

Engaging in peacemaking efforts within the community

Advocating for the reinvestment of justice dollars to build community capacity

Evaluating and measuring the impact of these efforts on the safety and well-being of the community

Using practices that promote healing
