Restorative Justice for Survivors of Sexual Abuse offers practical recommendations to inform policy change surrounding justice for survivors of sexual abuse.
Understanding the nature of their abuse is integral to sexual abuse survivors' healing.
Drawing on interviews, this book gives voice to survivors to illuminate how restorative justice processes can meet their justice needs. With a unique focus on the people around the survivor rather than on the abuser, it addresses the harm caused to survivors by those who enable their abuse, who fail to protect them, or fail to believe them.
Marinari offers radical solutions for the development of restorative justice programs and policy initiatives, including practical guidelines for practitioners, and new directions for academic research.
