Crime victims also consistently appear to be more satisfied after a restorative-justice process than after a traditional criminal one—sometimes dramatically so (in a 2017 study of its own work, Impact Justice found that 91 percent of victims said they’d recommend the process to a friend and 88 percent said the repair plan adopted by the group addressed their needs).

What does Restorative Jeff Co do?

We facilitate trainings around restorative practices, circles for community building, and diversion from the criminal legal system. Our partners including Golden Police Department divert eligible cases before even issuing a ticket to an alternative process for accountability, repair, and healing.

Welcome to our page!

Our mission is to provide restorative options with our community that address harm and violence through non-punitive accountability, promote healing and repair, and prevent future harm.

We envision a Jefferson County that has the capacity to leverage strong relationships to break cycles of harm and respond to conflict through restorative skills/tools and non-punitive means.
