Description
What does it mean to be a restorative college or university?“A restorative university seeks to prevent or respond to harm by using restorative practices across the institution. Rather than siloed within a singular office, such as an office of student conduct, restorative approaches are aligned with its institutional mission, apparent in the student development efforts within the division of student affairs, employed by faculty in their classrooms and as a topic of research, and seen in human resources as part of their efforts to create an equitable and rewarding workplace.”
– David R. Karp, Director, USD Center for Restorative Justice
How will this training equip me to be a leader for change in higher education?During the training, participants learn about the framework of restorative justice, its methodology and processes, and have the opportunity to practice the skills needed for facilitation. The training covers community-building practices and processes; restorative conferences and coaching to repair harm; community-concern circles to address community-level issues or systemic harm; and reintegration circles to welcome community members back into the community. The training also addresses institutional capacity-building and implementation of these processes.
