Introduction to Restorative Approaches: November 7 + 15, 9am - 5pm
Instead of focusing on blame and doing things “to” people, restorative approaches work “with” people to build problem-solving skills that result in better connections and a healthier community. This 16-hour training is designed to introduce the restorative approach and offer practical skills to build community, foster inclusion, and promote collaborative decision-making.
In this training, you will:
- Learn the guiding principles for restorative approaches.
- Learn how to design and facilitate a community building circle.
- Practice using relationship-driven communication processes.
- Learn processes for restorative accountability- specifically how to facilitate restorative conversations.
Certificate of completion will be provided.
Facilitating Restorative Circles: November 21 + 22, 9am - 5pm
This 16-hour training teaches participants to resolve more serious conflicts using restorative circles. A Restorative Circle is a conflict-resolution discussion where those affected develop their own solutions on how to make the situation right. In this process, a CRA trained facilitator brings together those responsible, those impacted, and others affected to create an action plan to repair harm and prevent it from happening again. Note: Completion of the Introduction to Restorative Approaches course is a prerequisite for this training.
In this training, you will:
- Gain an overview of Restorative Circles.
- Learn and practice the six steps of Restorative Circles.
- Engage in role-play scenarios to practice facilitation of Restorative Circles.
Certificate of completion will be provided.
