Restorative Project Fundraiser Thursday

The Lakes Area Restorative Project will hold a fall fundraiser Thursday at the Northland Arboretum in Brainerd. 

Director Stephanie Haider says their mission is to bring youthful offenders together with their victims outside of an over-worked court system.  She says on recent success was a mediated session between adolescences and Pequot Lakes business owners over an issue of graffiti.

Haider says the fundraiser at the Arb begins at 7 p.m. tomorrow.  A $20 donation is requested.  Training for new facilitators will be held October 22nd-24th.
