Become an RPA Member
RPA is a non-profit dedicated to ensuring high standards of restorative justice. At RPA we are dedicated to providing strong support and advocacy for all our members, building strong relationships with both members and provider groups to ensure that all voices are being heard, concerns are being addressed, and pathways forward are being forged collectively. Both individuals and Restorative Justice provider groups can become members of RPA. Our members come from all across Aotearoa New Zealand and are not just Restorative Practice facilitators or practitioners. We engage with a wide array of members who share a mutual interest in respect, relationships, community, and honesty.
