Peacebuilders Canada

Peacebuilders is a non-profit organization based in Toronto that seeks to improve access to justice for young people in conflict with the law and advocate for change in our justice, child welfare and education systems.

Through our supportive programming, training and advocacy, Peacebuilders promotes restorative approaches to justice as more developmentally appropriate ways to work with youth and adolescents in conflict and support their emotional growth, critical reflection and positive decision-making skills. Peacebuilders uses restorative programs in the youth court to offer meaningful alternatives for youth and in the education system help students and teachers manage conflict, activate safer school environments for learning and support youth, adolescents and families as they navigate the child welfare system.
