The Wabasha County Restorative Justice Program encompasses three
main components – Community Conferences, Restore Our Community (ROC)
and Youth Link Mentorship.
The objective of
Community Conferencing is to bring a juvenile offender(s) and their
victim(s) together with their respective support systems, community
members and a trained facilitator in an environment that allows for
safe and respectful communication in regards to the harm that was done
and in determining how the offender can repair that harm.
ROC
is the community work service project for juveniles in Wabasha County
and receives its referrals from an Intake Diversion Committee, Court
Services or the County Attorney.
Youth Link
is a community-based program that matches adult volunteers with at-risk
youth ages 8-17 in a mentoring relationship for at least one year. This
program would not exist without its volunteers and contributors and
encourages anyone who is interested in being a part of creating a safer
and stronger community to contact the coordinator.
