victim-offender reconciliation programs  

Définition(s)

  • Victim-offender reconciliation programs (VORPs) constitute one of several types of victim-offender interventions employed within the larger philosophical and applied approach to crime and conflict called “restorative justice.” The specific attributes of restorative justice interventions and programs vary. However, as pioneer in the field of restorative justice Howard Zehr has argued, most restorative justice interventions (including VORPs) share at least four assumptions: Crime can be better understood as harms and violations of relationships than as a breaking of the law.
