John Howard Society of Okanagan & Kootenay Back to Provincial Site

We deliver many programs and services which provide alternatives to the formal traditional justice system. Our alternative justice supports address the harm caused by crime and holds people accountable for their actions while providing education and healing. While some supports include restorative practices, and others may be more education-based, all seek to inform members of our community about the impact of crime on victims, offenders, and the wider community to prevent and address the harms caused by criminal behaviour.
