Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Restorative circles and victim-offender mediation both involve the victim and the offender playing a role in determining the outcome, but victim-offender mediation specifically refers to a trained mediator facilitating the encounter and working with the parties to come to a sentence or resolution. Target-hardening and community policing are not related to this type of approach.
