B.R.A.V.E: Building Restoration And Victim Empathy, is an innovative Restorative Justice program created for offenders in order to build victim empathy and aims to increase the rates of desistance from crime. Steeped in research from practices all over the world, this revolutionary approach to achieving reduced levels of recidivism is often welcomed by both offenders and victims alike.
The program has been created by a victim of violent rape with years of experience in education in low socio-economic and high crime areas. A true understanding of the motivations behind crime, as well as an insightful approach to the many issues that befall victims, make this program unlike any other. Building empathy, engaging in reflective practices and creating a community of compassion and understanding are but a few of the benefits this pioneering project has to offer.
