The mission of the Victim Offender Reconciliation Program of Denver is to provide education, create opportunity, and to instill hope for restoring relationships harmed by crime and conflict.

The Victim Offender Reconciliation Program (VORP) of Denver began in 1993 in response to the summer of violence in metro Denver area. VORP has collaborated with the justice system to provide Restorative Justice processes for our community as a way of addressing issues overlooked in a more traditional, adversarial justice system. VORP has been a catalyst for long-term answers to crime for offenders, victims, and our community. Each system has its role and provides part of the solution to the problem of administering justice. The VORP program, steeped in diverse cultural roots, gives an opportunity for reconciling and restoring relationships between victims, offenders, and our community.
