Restorative Justice Partners, Inc. facilitates healing dialogues between crime victims and youth offenders, with cases referred by the Monterey County Probation Department and funded through the Juvenile Justice Crime Prevention Act. Their training covers restorative approaches to conflict, effective communication, mediation techniques, and victim impacts, while providing hands-on practice with experienced mediators to prepare participants to lead these conversations.
Two mediator trainings: August 22–23, 2025 in South County and September 26–27, 2025 in the Monterey area.
Participants must be 18+, attend both sessions, and pass a background check (fees reimbursed).
