Downeast Restorative Justice believes in the power of social healing. We help repair harmed relationships through equitable, non-adversarial, community-based justice.
“The underlying premise of restorative practices is that people are happier, more cooperative, more productive and more likely to make positive changes when those in positions of authority do things WITH them rather than TO them or FOR them.”
– The Restorative Practice Handbook, Costello and Wachtel
