Restorative Justice - The idea is for the offender
to recognize that crime is wrong and should not occur and
to give them a median to make things as right as possible
through either service or by learning skills to repair relationships
and correct damage they have caused. At EHCC, offenders are
provided with opportunities to take the moment and learn from
it through offender programs and community services. Through
these opportunities, we hope to instill values, ethics, responsibility,
accountability and civility to those who participate and
to return to our communities individuals who are ready to
take responsibility for their crime and become a productive
member of society.
Observation of Crime Victims Rights
- For further assistance, the Crime Victims Services Bureau
is an agency that is dedicated to help those in need. If information
is needed, no matter how 'insignificant' it may seem, staff
is just a phone call away; Crime Victims Services Bureau at
