We have been engaging in many discussions recently about justice and justice systems in our LMU community and our society as a whole. Many of us have heard the term restorative justice but are not necessarily sure what it means or what it applies to. Sexual harm remains prevalent on college campuses and reporting has increased since the viral takeoff of the #MeToo movement in 2017. As the movement and conversations about sexual harm have progressed, interest in restorative justice approaches has grown. This session will engage Dr. Alissa Ackerman, an Associate Professor in the Division of Politics, Administration and Justice at California State University, Fullerton in a dialogue about restorative justice and what it offers for individuals and the community. Dr. Ackerman has dedicated her career to studying sex crimes policy and practice, the etiology of sexual offending, the effects of sexual victimization, and, most recently, restorative justice options for those impacted by sexual harm.
