Do you want to be empowered and supported in navigating relationship-centered concerns in a way where you have agency in shaping process and outcomes?
Do you want to be able to define the parameters for how to address your concerns while obtaining support and guidance from trained Restorative practitioners?
The Institute for Restorative Justice offers Restorative processes which are voluntary, remedies-based, and designed to balance support and accountability between or among affected parties.
With the support of a trained facilitator, harmed and responsible parties are empowered to reflect on their individual needs and obligations in an effort to support their growth and mitigate future harm to themselves or others.
IRJ offers two Restorative tracks, which include:
- Restorative Justice Alternative (RJA)
- The RJA process seeks to address or mitigate conflict that stems from intrapersonal and interpersonal concerns.
- Restorative Practices Alternative (RPA)
- The RPA process seeks to address Title IX related concerns under “Track C” in the HOP 3-3031.
Please note: Title IX matters are determined eligible for RPA by the Title IX Coordinator; approval of the parties’ voluntary agreement is necessary to proceed.
