Guidelines support victims in phase 3 RJ program

Shane Rattenbury, MLA

Ways to expand interagency collaboration and offer more flexible support for vulnerable groups were key themes in submissions about new guidelines to support phase three of ACT’s restorative justice scheme.

Phase Three will see restorative justice extended to include family violence and sexual offences. The ACT Restorative Justice Unit has been consulting on steps and protections in place for victims and offenders.
