Community Legal Education Ontario, founded in 1974, is a community legal clinic in Ontario, Canada, that specializes in public legal education. One of its chief aims is to produce clear language materials on a variety of subjects for people with low incomes. This pamphlet introduces restorative justice as an alternative approach to youth justice. The pamphlet covers the following topics: principles and practices of restorative justice; restorative justice as an alternative, community-based program; types of cases addressed by restorative justice; how restorative justice works; what restorative justice offers to victims of youth crime, young offenders, and the community; and the benefits of restorative justice in relation to young offenders in particular.

When victims, offenders, and community members meet to decide how to do that, the results are transformational.
