This vision, called restorative justice, was articulated through his seminal book, Changing Lenses, which spurred an international movement that, thanks to his continued involvement and leadership, continues to grow today. Now, 23 years later, leaning toward retirement, Howard Zehr paints a new vision for what communities and justice system might look like if restorative justice is successfully adopted and utilized as the primary means for responding to crime.
