What the Literature Teaches Us About Survivor-Centered Practice. A free one-hour virtual webinar during Restorative Justice Week (November 15–22, 2026), delivered by Aurra Startup.
When someone experiences harm, what does it mean to have a voice in what happens next? They may be left with questions or needs that aren’t always addressed through traditional criminal legal processes. Restorative Justice (RJ) offers one possible way of responding. But how do people learn about these opportunities? Who gets to decide what participation looks like? And how can we ensure that RJ is shaped by the needs of those who have experienced harm?
Join us as we explore these questions through findings from our Victim-Initiated Restorative Responses literature review, and how communities and organizations can make these opportunities more accessible and responsive. Whether you’re hearing about RJ for the first time, supporting people who have experienced harm, or simply curious, we warmly invite you to join us.
