About this Event
WTCI’s Justice Summit brings Wolastoqey community members and frontline community workers together for a full day of learning, dialogue, and connection focused on justice, rights, and community-based approaches. Topics will include restorative justice, community by-laws and peacekeepers, Indigenous court workers, Gladue rights, knowing your rights, and victim services.
This gathering is open to Wolastoqey members from the six Wolastoqey communities in New Brunswick, as well as non-wolastoqey community employees who support members in accessing justice-related services. The summit is designed to strengthen collaboration, knowledge of rights and access to supports across our communities.
