Mirsky, Laura (2006). The Chard and Ilminster Community Justice Panel: Restorative Community Justice. Restorative Practices E-Forum. August 29, 2006.

What makes the CICJP different from other community justice boards is the restorative process. As in restorative conferences, as practiced by the IIRP, the CICJP brings victims, offenders and their supporters together face to face to deal with the consequences of an offense and decide how to repair the harm. Victims tell offenders how they have been affected by an offense, and offenders have a chance to take responsibility and make amends. Supporters express themselves, too. (excerpt)
