Facilitating Restorative Group Conferences
Updated 2003 information Facilitating Restorative Group Conferences is a curriculum designed for training volunteer and employed facilitators who will conduct restorative group conferences. A restorative group conference, as used here, refers to a process that seeks to identify, repair and prevent harm, based in restorative justice values including meaningful accountability. A restorative group conference is led by a trained facilitator and involves face-to-face contact among one or more victims or their representative, the offenders, supporters for both, and other people who are affected. Participation of the victim is completely voluntary, and participation of the offender is based upon their willingness and readiness. Development of this curriculum is a project of the Minnesota Department of Corrections, made possible through financial support from the National Institute of Corrections Technical Assistance program. 2003 Participant Guide Contains Participants Guide Lesson 1: Introduction Participants Guide Lesson 2: Conferencing and Restorative Justice Participants Guide Lesson 3: Understanding the Participants Participants Guide Lesson 4: Role of the Facilitator Participants Guide Lesson 5: Further Development of Conferencing Skills Participants Guide Lesson 6: Next Steps Participants Guide Appendix 2003 Trainers Guide Contains Trainers Guide Notes to Trainers Trainers Guide Practice Conference Scenarios Trainers Guide Lesson 1: Introduction Trainers Guide Lesson 2: Conferencing and Restorative Justice
