Having completed the posts I'd planned on the 2007 national restorative justice conference last week in Kerrville, TX, I thought I'd compile them all in one place for my and own and other folks' convenience. Thanks again to readers who helped financially for me to attend. I learned a lot and met a lot of interesting folks as a result. To sum up, then, here are the Grits posts related to the event:

* Jubilee! A Judeo-Christian basis for economic populism

* Restorative Justice Presents Challenges and Opportunities for Faith Community

* Chaos Theory and Restorative Justice

* Are there options to warehousing mentally ill offenders in jail?

* Judge Rob Junell and his wife's wildest dreams

* Toastmasters teaching inmates public speaking skills

* Blogversation: Does the Criminal Justice System Meet Victims' (or Anybody's) Needs?

* If ex-prisoners can build a country in Australia, why can't they be barbers in Texas?

* Truth, Reconciliation, and the Risks of Restorative Justice Lite

* Juvenile corrections could be next venue for restorative justice in Texas

* Restorative Justice and Transcending Victimhood

* Second Chance Act author speaks at Kerrville conference

In addition, here are several other links that should assist anyone wanting to research these issues further:
