Crime and conflict are inevitable in any society, but how we respond to them can make a huge difference. In this episode of the Arlington AMP podcast, join host Harsidak Singh,as he talks to Devanshi Patel, the CEO of the Center for Youth and Family Advocacy (CYFA). CYFA is a non-profit organization that uses restorative justice practices to address crime and conflict in Arlington. Devanshi explains what restorative justice is, what benefits it offers, and what challenges it faces in Arlington. She also shares some of the programs and initiatives that CYFA runs, such as the PEER Program and the Youth Peer Court, which involve young people as facilitators, participants, and decision-makers in the restorative process. Tune in and let's rethink justice together!
