WestMan Mediation Service is a John Howard Society of Brandon initiative that supports restorative justice, conflict resolution, and community healing. Through this service, people are given an opportunity to address harm, take responsibility, and work toward meaningful repair in a way that can help divert matters from the criminal justice system and support more constructive outcomes for everyone involved.

WestMan Mediation Service offers mediation supports for individuals, families, and community members who are looking for a respectful, guided process to resolve conflict. The service creates space for people to be heard, to communicate more effectively, and to reach practical agreements that support safety, accountability, and forward movement.

The program also works with school divisions to support restorative approaches to conflict in educational settings. In schools, this can help address harm, strengthen relationships, and build skills for problem-solving, communication, and accountability while keeping students connected to their learning environment.
