Mediation

Restorative Practices

HIGHTS mediation services are based on the principles of restorative justice. Restorative practices ultimately aim to improve and repair relationships between people and communities while increasing social capital and decreasing crime. Our team provides restorative mediation services for vulnerable youth, including juvenile justice diversion programs, truancy conferencing, teen court, and reintegration support to school or home. This service can also provide youth/family mediation to help set up agreements and expectations in the home where the youth resides. Counties served: Haywood, Jackson, Macon, Clay, Cherokee, Graham, and Swain Counties.
