Restorative justice asks the simple questions: What happened? Who was impacted? And what repair is needed to move forward? Restorative justice offers a genuine opportunity for people to take accountability for the harm they have caused while giving those who have been harmed a voice in the process. For more information on BRITE Collaborative, please visit Restorative justice has grown as an alternative to the traditional justice system in the United States since the 1970’s, from a grassroots initiative to a revolutionary, state-funded enterprise. The state of Colorado receives national acclaim for progressive legislation, including for being the first and only state to fund restorative justice programs. Since 1994, BRITE Collaborative (formerly LCJP and Teaching Peace) has been a state-wide and national leader for the restorative justice movement by defining and exemplifying best standards of training and practice.
