Information about The Center for Restorative Justice

The Center for Restorative Justice is founded on the belief that human harm caused by crime must be healed by a criminal justice system that is more restorative than punitive; that victims and survivors of crime, including offenders who were themselves victimized and others harmed by crime, can never be healed by merely punishing offenders.

Vision Statement:

The Center for Restorative Justice at Loyola Law School exists to help bring about a shift from a punitive to a restorative paradigm of justice in our society.

The Center's activities include education, research, advocacy, creating communications, sponsoring community programs, building relationships and developing and disseminating effective practices.
