Restorative Justice nurtures relationships and communities so that members are invested and consider it a place in which they feel welcome, valued, and respected. That way, when something impactful or painful happens, community members are much more likely to feel committed to restoring and repairing harm. Restorative justice is a complete paradigm shift where harm and conflict actually make communities stronger. In a world that has been ravaged by the punitive approach, being restorative can be a welcome change of pace. Learn how to begin the shift with East Ed's three-session Restorative Justice Workshop Saturday, February 19th, February 26th, March 5th. Register today!
