According to Martha Henderson Hurley, while definitions of restorative justice vary, certain common themes are associated with restorative practices:
a. Restorative justice is a philosophy that emphasizes the need to repair the harm caused by crime. Reparation is not something that can only be done by punishing the offender. True reparation requires the participation of all stakeholders (victims, offenders, the community, and criminal justice officials) in the development of plans to repair the harms caused by criminality.
b. Restorative practices are predicated upon the idea that offenders must be held accountable for their actions. Thus, consequences must be applied when offenders fail to follow through with restorative activities.
c. When all stakeholders participate in the process, healing occurs, the potential for future harm is reduced, and offenders can be restored back into society.
d. All of the above
