The Community Justice Worker Program supports restorative justice and culturally sensitive approaches to addressing crime within Indigenous communities. This program, funded through the Community-Based Justice Fund, works to foster fairness, inclusiveness, and responsiveness within the justice system.

​

Key Services:

• Alternative Measures and Extrajudicial Sanctions: Provides structured opportunities for offenders to make reparations to victims and the community, avoiding a criminal record upon successful completion.

• Victim-Offender Mediation: Facilitates dialogue between victims and offenders to address harm and foster healing.

• Healing and Talking Circles: Offers culturally appropriate spaces for conflict resolution and community engagement.

• Community Justice Committees: Includes Elders and youth representatives to guide restorative justice initiatives in the region.

• Crime Prevention and Education: Raises awareness about restorative justice practices and BTC Justice programs.

​

The program promotes accountability and healing, enabling offenders to resolve their charges constructively while addressing the needs of victims and the community.
