Person
Mark Yantzi has promoted Restorative Justice (RJ) since 1974 when he and David Worth convinced a judge to allow two youths with 22 charges of willful damage to meet their victims and make restitution instead of jail. He founded Community Justice Initiatives in Kitchener-Waterloo, Ontario, which has 17 different RJ programs (www.cjiwr.com). In 2009 he retired as executive director and continues to work on RJ issues. Applying RJ to sexual abuse issues is one of the most pioneering aspects of his work.
