Restorative Justice Approaches to Sexual Harm and Healing
CJI’s Revive program supports women, men, and youth over 18 who are impacted by sexual harm through education and peer support groups, and one-to-one services. We also offer services for partners, families, and communities impacted by sexual harm.
CJI assists both people who have caused sexual harm, as well as people who have experienced sexual harm. As such, we are vigilant with boundaries helping everyone feel safe. For example, survivor groups and offender groups meet on different evenings. Revive program participants discover that they are not alone and that it helps to talk with others with similar experiences.
While Revive promotes self-awareness and healing, we do not provide clinical services such as counseling, therapy, risk assessment, or treatment. If you need clinical services, please contact the Sexual Assault Support Centre of Waterloo Region

During our 40+ year history, we have continuously responded to community needs by creatively, and innovatively applying restorative justice principles to new problems. We believe the only limit to the power of restorative justice is the capacity of the human heart to change and grow.
