ABOUT US
Making Change Possible
Founded and sanctioned as a justice committee in 2003. Youth Restorative Action Project (YRAP) has made tremendous impact thanks to the help of youth volunteers in the Edmonton community. YRAP is mandated to work with young people who have caused harm while being affected by a variety of significant social issues such as intolerance, racism, substance abuse, homelessness, family violence and prostitution. We also offer those who have caused harm an opportunity to take responsibility for their actions and to grow positively, while offering victims a meaningful role in the process.

The Youth Restorative Action Project (YRAP) is honoured to acknowledge the land we operate on and the people of the community we provide our services to. YRAP operates on the traditional territory of Treaty 6. The Treaty 6 territory holds immense significance to the First Nations, Métis, and Inuit people that have lived here for countless generations. As a founded and sanctioned justice committee, we are grateful for the opportunities which connect us to this land, the community, and the Indigenous Peoples we partner with.
