Making Things Right: Restorative Justice for School Communities

“One of the best videos around for introducing students and staff to restorative justice in schools.”

Colorado School Mediation Project/Restorative Solutions

DVD, Filmed in Colorado and Minnesota

Approximately 24 Minutes

August 2000

The “Making Things Right” DVD is a compelling overview of how restorative justice is working to successfully transform school discipline and create caring school cultures. Many school communities are beginning to implement Restorative Justice into their own disciplinary process as a means of reducing suspension, expulsion, and police involvement. The goal of these school-based Restorative Justice efforts is to hold offending students accountable for their actions while at the same time addressing the fears and concerns of victims and the wider school community. This video includes interviews with teachers, administrators, parents, and students who have all been impacted by the process.
