Pre-requisite: ACES part 1 and Becoming a Self-Healing Community (part 2)

This is an introduction to the practices of Restorative Justice in Education (RJ). Restorative justice isn't just a technique or tactic. It's a paradigm shift in the way schools think about discipline that asks educators to fundamentally challenge their perceptions of students who violate school policies. Suspensions and expulsions, Adverse Childhood Experiences and Self-Healing Communities, Spheres of Influence are topics that shape the conversation around approaching restorative justice in your schools.
