This NOFO will support the management and expansion of the National Center on Restorative Justice (NCORJ). The Center will educate, train, and build knowledge on restorative justice approaches and principles and their application to criminal justice and community safety. This Center will provide targeted education and training to a variety of justice/legal professionals, including law enforcement agencies, correctional institutions, prosecutors, and court personnel on accountability-focused restorative justice approaches that improve public safety by strengthening traditional law enforcement, reinforcing personal responsibility among offenders, and providing meaningful restoration to victims.
