Sacro Fife & Forth Valley

Sacro is Scotland’s leading community justice voluntary organisation working to make Scotland's communities safer by reducing conflict and offending.

Sacro is a national voluntary organisation working across Scotland to make communities safer by reducing conflict and offending. Sacro operates in the community in partnership with others who share its values. It works with those in conflict, those responsible for causing, and those affected by, crime or other harm. It does this in four key ways:
• by being a leading provider of direct, innovative services in Criminal Justice, Restorative Justice and Community Mediation
• through Consultancy and Training services which equip Sacro and other organisations to deliver best practice, to extend the impact of Sacro’s specialist expertise across Scotland
• through research which monitors and evaluates the effectiveness of Sacro’s services and keeps it abreast of research in the field, and
• by seeking to influence policy and legislation, on the basis of the research evidence, so that: the use of Restorative Justice and of constructive conflict resolution are extended; and the use of imprisonment is restricted to those who have committed serious crimes or are a danger to the public.
