Alternatives
Northern Ireland Alternatives is a company limited by guarantee with charitable status that was formally established during 2000 and emerged out of the Greater Shankill Alternatives Restorative Justice Programme.
Greater Shankill Alternatives was established as a community based restorative justice programme in September 1998 and was initially intended to act as a pilot project for three years to evaluate it's effectiveness before beginning the process of expansion. However, due to the success of Greater Shankill Alternatives and the requests from other communities for similar initiatives, Northern Ireland Alternatives evolved naturally and organically as a means to help develop and support new strategic restorative justice initiatives.
