Provide center-based programs that support cognitive and social-emotional growth among children who are not old enough to enter formal schooling

Use victim-offender dialogue to address the harm caused by a crime and victims’ needs; can take place pre-arrest or post sentence via sharing circles, victim-offender mediation, or face-to-face conferences
