Answer to Question 1

F

Answer to Question 2

 Restorative justice is a nonpunitive strategy for delinquency control that attempts to address the issues that produce conflict between two parties (offender and victim) and, hence, reconcile the parties.
 Restoration rather than retribution or punishment is at the heart of the restorative justice approach.
 Seven core values characterize restorative justice:
 Crime is an offense against human relationships.
 Victims and the community are central to justice processes.
 The first priority of justice processes is to assist victims.
 The second priority of justice processes is to restore the community, to the degree possible.
 The offender has a personal responsibility to victims and to the community for crimes committed.
 The offender will develop improved competency and understanding as a result of the restorative justice experience.
 Stakeholders share responsibilities for restorative justice through partnerships for action.
 Student views will vary.
