Abstract

The Restorative Justice (RJ) has been consolidating in Brazil as a modern and emancipatory justice project. This study focuses on ways of solving conflicts involving adolescents who commit infractional acts and their families, through the RJ model. In order to analyze the participation of the family in restorative juvenile justice experiences in the North and Northeast regions, a combination of methods was divided into three interdependent phases. The first phase consisted of an exploratory study carried out between August 2015 and June 2016. The theoretical-practical implementation of "Restorative Justice" in Brazil was promoted and the restorative justice projects in the regions surveyed were identified. The questionnaire was applied with social actors involved in restorative justice projects. The questionnaire was applied with social actors involved in restorative justice projects. Twenty-nine experiences were identified in the N and NE, nineteen in the field of childhood and youth, involving Judiciary, Executive Branch, Defenders, Public Ministry, Universities, schools, OAB, NGOs and Reference Centers in Social Assistance. For the most part, the projects include the family through the restorative circles, with psychosocial support and receive guidance on compliance with the socioeducational measure (MSE). Those responsible for adolescents are encouraged to participate in restorative practices from the initial stage of investigation of the infraction until the execution of the SEM. The analysis of the questionnaires evokes the repercussion of the inclusion of the family in the process, besides contributing to the definition of the emblematic experience to be investigated in depth. The chosen project was situated at child and youth court of the municipality of Santarém, in western Pará. This project started in 2012, as a result of the interinstitutional partnership between the Pará State Court of Justice and the Federal University of Western Pará. The experience shows that the participation of the family in restorative circles encourages youth protagonism, the strengthening of family ties and the exercise of citizenship. However, auxiliary strategies of a public nature are still needed to facilitate the access of family members, especially those adolescents with total or partial restraint of freedom, creating adequate spaces for the exercise of care and the generation of affection.
