Introduction to Restorative Justice
for Community Healing and Transformation Training

Ruptured relationships create psychological trauma, conflict, and violence. Restorative Justice allows for truth-telling and repairing harm for healed, just, equitable relationships setting the stage for the possibility of reconciliation. Healed, just relationships are violence prevention. Restorative justice prevents violence and builds peace into our lives and communities. All are welcome to join us online. Optional 2 hours of continuing education is available for Minnesota social workers, teachers, and nurses for an additional modest fee. This training is in high demand, so please register early.
