Summary

New Zealand Ministry of Justice standards for using restorative processes in sexual offending cases. It begins with the context of sexual and family violence in the country, reviews the 2004 principles of best practice, and then sets out new principles and requirements for service design, referral, pre-conference, conference, and follow-up, with a section on offenses committed against children and adolescents. It calls for specialized staff and careful assessment of the victim's safety and willingness. Useful for programs considering whether to accept these cases and with what safeguards.
