Asking "open ended" questions allows the client to share information, in their own words. 

"How did you feel about...?" versus  "Did you feel....?" or "You must have felt..."

This experiential training is designed to deepen restorative justice practitioners' understanding and awareness of victim needs and "victim-centeredness". This will be a safe space to practice "victim-centered" language and thinking in order to better serve the victim community through restorative justice practices.
