CRP is part of an international movement seeking to promote the use of specific practices to resolve conflict and repair harm for all parties involved. The process includes members of the affected community, the victim(s) and offender(s). Conferencing offers the opportunity, through guided dialog, for accurate communication of facts, needs, feelings, and consequences. This process creates the opportunity for amends to be made and the prevention of future harm.
