The Richmond Restorative Justice Program is a diversion program, which acts as an alternative approach to the traditional court system.

This program is funded by the City of Richmond and partners with the Richmond RCMP.

Referrals are accepted from the community, particularly the RCMP, for persons who have committed harm in the community.  

Program facilitators bring together and assist everyone affected by a crime or incident, including victims, offenders and their supporters in a suitable process where they work collaboratively to address the harm and reach a fair and just resolution.

Through accountability and healing, the Richmond Restorative Justice Program helps reduce harm in the future, thus creating a safer and healthier community. 

Access to the program is by referral from the Richmond R.C.M.P.
