Restorative Justice Philosophy and Peace Circle Keeper Training
This 5-day training program is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of the philosophy of Restorative Justice and the confidence and openness required to hold space for the peace circle process.
The training is structured to be both experiential and lecture-based, allowing participants to 1. undergo the deep process of the peace circle, 2. dissect the goals and essential elements of the process, and 3. practice providing the process.
Additionally, the training explores various topics such as trauma-informed practices, strength-based communication approaches, positive youth and human development, and more, providing participants with a well-rounded understanding of this subject matter.
Every participant will receive a certificate of completion and be provided with a comprehensive resource folder upon completion of the training. This resource folder will serve as a valuable aid to support them on their keeper journey.
Additionally, we kindly request that attendees dress comfortably for these sessions.
All participants will receive Keeper Bags post-training:
