520			_aFamily Group Conferences (FGCs) were first introduced in New Zealand and in this article, Maxwell and Morris of the Crime and Justice Research Centre, Victoria University of Wellington, discuss the role that FGCs have when working with young people who have offended. The fundamental philosophy of FGCs, in this context, is the idea of restorative justice, achieved through a meeting between the young offender, their families and the victim. This article reviews how the FGC process can be used to plan and implement responses to deal with the young persons offending. The findings suggest that there is a sufficient foundation in New Zealand upon which to build a restorative justice process for adult offenders. Further, this article suggests that FGCs are a useful strategy that can be employed by other countries who with to work towards a restorative justice approach to offending.
