Center for Restorative Approaches

Center for Restorative Approaches CRA changes the way we handle conflict in schools, workplaces, and communities.

The Center for Restorative Approaches (CRA) offers Restorative Justice practices to schools, workplaces and neighborhoods in New Orleans. Restorative Justice is a way of handling conflict that focuses on the needs of those harmed, as well as the needs of those who have done harm. At CRA we provide communities with training, tools, and processes that build relationships and that allow those most impacted by conflict and crime to develop their own solutions and ways of repairing harm.

In July, an open bid was made public to highly qualified community-based organizations with an established history that could deliver the programs and services. Funding for the projects is expected to begin by early 2024.
