Restorative Parenting for Building, Maintaining and Healing Our Relationships with Children
Community and restorative justice continues to grow and expand across the U.S. and world. With that growth comes increased opportunities for trainings, conferences, and events to deepen one’s relationship with these practices. In our commitment to continual learning, practice, and facilitating connections, we offer this calendar as a go to place to share and find community and restorative justice events.

Restorative Parenting for Building, Maintaining and Healing Our Relationships with Children
Saturday, August 24, 2024 (9:00 AM - 11:00 AM) (EDT)
Description
Unprecedented challenges that our youth have encountered in recent years have had devastating effects on their mental health. The current “youth mental health crises” as acknowledged in the U.S. surgeon general’s recent special report, calls us to deepen our listening and caregiving for our young persons. Restorative justice practices (RJPs) build skills to support positive, thriving, empowered relationships and can transform how we show up for our youth whether it be within our family systems, schools, community or extracurricular activities. In this session we ask: How can parents/guardians navigate emerging complexities of youth’s lives to best hold our children with care? Join us to share and receive ideas and experiences to orient our hearts and minds to show up with our best selves for our young persons. Facilitators will demonstrate a restorative conversation between father and daughter.
