SEC. 203. RESTORATIVE JUSTICE GRANTS. 
(a) PURPOSES.—The purposes of this section are 
to—
(1) hold juvenile offenders accountable for their 
offenses, while ensuring the continuing safety of vic-
tims; 
(2) involve victims and the community in the 
juvenile justice process; 
(3) obligate the offender to pay restitution to 
the victim and to the community through community
service or through financial or other forms of res-
titution; and

ed to live responsibly and productively.

grants, in accordance with such regulations as the Attor-
ney General may prescribe, to units of local governments,

lish restorative justice programs, such as victim and of-
fender mediation, family and community conferences, fam-
ily and group conferences, sentencing circles, restorative 
panels, and reparative boards, as an alternative to, or in 
addition to, incarceration.

the offender (who must admit responsibility), once

ability conferences, at which the victim will have the 
opportunity to address the offender directly, to de-
scribe the impact of the offense against the victim,
and the opportunity to suggest possible forms of res-
titution;

victim, the offender and, when possible, the parents 
or guardians of the offender, and the arresting offi-
cer; and 
(4) provide an early, individualized assessment 
and action plan to each juvenile offender in order to 
prevent further criminal behavior through the devel-
opment of appropriate skills in the juvenile offender 
so that the juvenile is more capable of living produc-
tively and responsibly in the community.

tion—
(1) $8,000,000 for fiscal year 2004; and
