Toby Mueller
Hi, my name is Toby Mueller. I have been volunteering for LRJ since November 2010. I grew up in Toronto. I did four years toward a bachelor degree in Environmental Studies and Cultural Studies at Trent University. I moved to the Lillooet area in 1995 for love. I have stayed and made this place my home. I am a mother, wife, farmer, literacy outreach worker and community volunteer. I became interested in restorative justice after a few very different experiences with the criminal justice system. I feel that it is important to have alternative ways of dealing with bad behaviour, especially for young people. RJ works to heal the harm done and fully integrate the person into the community. Often the criminal justice system further alienates victims, offenders and their families. In my experience the Community Justice forums are safe and compassionate. Victims are satisfied with the outcomes, and offenders are able to express remorse, make amends and move forward as positive members of the community. I always feel privileged to be part of this process, and I am very glad to be a volunteer for this program.
