Yes, absolutely. It's really a step toward taking back their power. In fact, that's why restorative justice works. It happens when victims can assert themselves and say what they have to say. At our centre, we ask victims to write letters to confront their abuser. We draw their abuser on the wall and ask the victim to practice by reading their letters to them. It's part of this extraordinary reclaiming of their power.
