Victim Impact Classes
A Victim Impact Class consists of four consecutive sessions four times a year. Each class is led by two trained staff members of the Center for Restorative Justice.

Victims also speak to the participants about their personal experiences. Afterward there is a question and answer session.

Project goals:

  • To help participants build understanding and empathy for others.
  • To teach participants that their actions impact the entire community.

Victims volunteer their time to talk to our juveniles at the Victim Impact classes.
