if appropriate; the offender's family members or other supportive persons, if appropriate; a law
enforcement official or prosecutor when appropriate; other criminal justice system professionals
when appropriate; and members of the community, in order to:

(2) provide support to the victim and methods for reintegrating the victim into community
life;
(3) assign an appropriate sanction to the offender; and
(4) provide methods for reintegrating the offender into community life.
