OBA Alternative Dispute Resolution PROGRAM | 5:30 PM to 7:00 PM (ET)

Restorative justice processes can offer meaningful alternatives to the traditional adversarial model in civil, family, and criminal matters, with a focus on addressing harm and the systemic and cultural issues underlying disputes.

Join us to explore practical restorative justice programs, current challenges and opportunities for implementing restorative justice approaches, and what we can learn from successful restorative justice models in other jurisdictions including Alberta and Nova Scotia.
