Center for Restorative Justice & Peacemaking (formerly Center for Restorative Justice & Mediation) School of Social Work University of Minnesota St. Paul, Minnesota April 2000 NCJ 176349 ---------------------------- Message From the Director This collection of six documents covers a number of important issues related to restorative justice. Four of the documents focus on victim-offender mediation, which is a major programmatic intervention that fully embraces the concepts of restorative justice. The first of these documents is the Guidelines for Victim-Sensitive Victim-Offender Mediation: Restorative Justice Through Dialogue, which assists administrators in developing or enhancing their restorative justice programs. It provides practical guidance for mediators to facilitate balanced and fair mediation, which will ensure the safety and integrity of all the participants. The National Survey of Victim-Offender Mediation Programs in the United States contains information about the characteristics of the various victim-offender mediation programs operating nationwide and the major issues facing them in their day-to-day operations. The Survey describes the actual functioning of the programs, while the Guidelines sets standards for the practice of victim-offender mediation. Next, the Directory of Victim-Offender Mediation Programs in the United States lists all identified victim-offender mediation programs in the country and provides their addresses, phone numbers, and contact and other basic information. The purpose of the Directory is to provide easy access for persons who would like to contact a given program. The Family Group Conferencing: Implications for Crime Victims document discusses a related form of restorative justice dialogue that originated in New Zealand and Australia and has been replicated in some communities in the United States. The Multicultural Implications of Restorative Justice: Potential Pitfalls and Dangers document informs practitioners about concerns regarding the implementation of such frameworks when working with persons of cross-cultural perspectives. The sixth document, entitled Victim-Offender Mediation and Dialogue in Crimes of Severe Violence, will be added to the collection late FY 2000. It will provide case study evidence suggesting that many of the principles of restorative justice can be applied to crimes of severe violence, including murder. In addition, this document includes a discussion about the need for advanced training for persons working with victims of severe violence. The Office for Victims of Crime does not insist that every victim participate in victim-offender mediation, family group conferencing, or other restorative justice intervention. Such participation is a personal decision that each victim must make for herself or himself. We strongly advocate, however, that all restorative justice programs be extremely sensitive to the needs and concerns of the victims who would like to meet with their offenders. No pressure should be placed on victims to participate, for participation must be strictly voluntary. Victims should be granted a choice in the location, timing, and structure of the session and a right to end their participation at any stage in the process. These protections for victims do not mean that offenders can be treated insensitively. Both victim and offender must be dealt with respectfully. We sincerely hope that restorative justice programs already in operation in probation or parole agencies, judicial agencies, religious groups, victim service organizations, community-based organizations, or elsewhere study these documents and embrace the victim-sensitive guidelines that are relevant to their particular type of intervention. Restorative justice programs can only be strengthened by operating with heightened awareness of the needs of crime victims. Kathryn M. Turman Director Office for Victims of Crime ---------------------------- Acknowledgments The Office for Victims of Crime (OVC) would like to offer special thanks to authors Mark S. Umbreit, Ph.D., Director; Robert Schug, B.A.; Jean Greenwood, M.Div., former Training Coordinator; Claudia Fercello, M.S.W.; Jenni Umbreit, B.A., of the Center for Restorative Justice & Peacemaking (formerly the Center for Restorative Justice & Mediation), School of Social Work, University of Minnesota. We recognize the valuable contribution of the members of the Board of Directors of the Victim-Offender Mediation Association (VOMA), who played a critical role in offering thoughts about the survey and providing the VOMA mailing list, which was the foundation of the national survey and directory of programs. We thank the many program staff members who took the time to participate in the Center's phone interviews about victim-offender mediation policies and practices. Also, we would like to acknowledge the valuable contribution made by Robert Schug, Administrative Aide at the Center for Restorative Justice & Peacemaking, who spent many hours preparing and updating the directory and responding to numerous requests for draft copies. This project also benefited greatly from the contributions, guidance, and support of Susan Laurence, the project manager at OVC. This Restorative Justice and Mediation Collection is the result of the efforts of many individuals in the field who generously shared their materials and experience with the Center for Restorative Justice & Peacemaking so that victims may be provided additional options in the process of healing. ---------------------------- Center for Restorative Justice & Peacemaking The restorative justice model supports the view that a crime is a harmful act against individual victims and members of the community--not just the State. The criminal justice process needs to ensure that offenders repair this harm; respond to victims compassionately, fairly, and justly; and promote safe and secure communities. The Center for Restorative Justice & Peacemaking (formerly Center for Restorative Justice & Mediation) at the University of Minnesota School of Social Work (St. Paul campus) was established to provide technical assistance, training, and research in the State of Minnesota, nationally, and internationally to support restorative justice practices and principles. Through restorative justice, victims, communities, and offenders are placed in active roles to work together to-- o Empower victims in their search for closure. o Impress upon offenders the real human impact of their behavior. o Promote restitution to victims and communities. Dialogue and negotiation are central to restorative justice, and problem solving for the future is seen as more important than simply establishing blame for past behavior. Balance is sought among the legitimate needs of the victim, the community, and the offender to enhance community protection and direct accountability of the offender to the victim and the victimized community. The Center for Restorative Justice & Peacemaking offers the following services and training opportunities: o National Restorative Justice Training Institute at the University of Minnesota, St. Paul campus, through the School of Social Work, College of Human Ecology, and University College/Continuing Education. o Regional workshops and training seminars throughout Minnesota and in other locations. o Promotion, support, and technical assistance for systemic change in the juvenile justice system that embraces restorative justice policies and programs in correctional systems. o Pilot sites in Florida, Minnesota, and Pennsylvania through the Balanced and Restorative Justice Project, a joint project with Florida Atlantic University, supported by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, U.S. Department of Justice, Washington, D.C. o Introductory victim-offender mediation training and program development assistance (3-day sessions). o Advanced mediation training in crimes of severe violence, including homicide (4-day sessions). o Graduate coursework on mediation and conflict resolution in communities, schools, families, and workplaces and within the justice system. o Mediation services in cases of homicide and other offenses involving severe violence. o Cross-national studies of restorative justice and mediation in Canada, England, and the United States. o Resource center of video and print materials relating to restorative justice and mediation.
