We believe that a restorative community is a better community. We facilitate proactive and responsive processes that enhance cooperation, encourage understanding, and strengthen relationships. EVRJP - building and restoring community one relationship at a time.
EVRJP is a joint venture created in 2002 between the Town of Estes Park Police Department and a 501(c)(3) nonprofit. The vision of this partnership was to invite the community to join with the Estes Park Police Department in providing restorative justice services to the Estes Valley. While initially formed to assist in dealing with juvenile crime, EVRJP has grown to offer proactive and responsive programs for youth and adults that bring the community together to resolve issues and build solutions. Each EVRJP process is based on the restorative principles of relationship, respect, responsibility, repair, reconciliation and reintegration. At the core is an approach to problem solving that is inclusive, fosters open dialogue, encourages accountability and provides an opportunity for parties to build meaningful resolutions. EVRJP processes reduce the number of repeat offenders, strengthen the community, increase safety and promote active citizenship through a variety of volunteer roles.
