The National Center on Restorative Justice (Center) has two purposes: (1) Educate and train the next generation of juvenile and criminal justice leaders.

This training will be developed in conjunction with criminal justice professionals, community members, educators, and social service providers, at the state, regional, and national levels. Approaches will include development of a degree program, a summer-term institute, and/or brief courses, while encouraging access to educational opportunities for incarcerated individuals. (2) Support research focusing on how best to provide direct services to address social inequities such as simultaneous access to substance abuse treatment and higher education. This research support may include a combination of approaches, including conducting research, developing research agendas and approaches, and translating research in the area of restorative justice. |
