Summary

Lewis, Lesley (2006). Glasgow Restorative Justice Service. Resolution. News from the Restorative Justice Consortium. Number 23.

In March 2002 the Scottish Executive announced the award of funding for restorative justice services as an approach to addressing youth offending across Scotland. Thus began a project which cumulated in the launch of a city-wide Restorative Justice Service (RJS) in August 2003. Since its inception 3 years ago the RJS has expanded significantly and has an intrinsic part of the city's approach to tackling youth offending and anti-social behaviour. The service is recognised as a model of good practice nationally.(excerpt)
