Restorative Justice and Alternative Measures
Indigenous program
The Justice Center offers ways for you to address conflict or harm in a community setting. The program can offer you the opportunity to access culturally appropriate alternatives to regular court. Through the Justice Center, you might be eligible to be part of a diversion program at both municipal and provincial court, called the General Alternatives Measures Program (GAMP). The Restorative Justice Program works closely with community partners, Elders and Knowledge Keepers to support you with your wellness objectives.
This program may also be accessed through a referral at the municipal court of Montreal or the Palais de Justice de Montréal.
