Open Trauma Sensitivity Training - SPRING 2025 |
Restorative Justice Training
Led by CCEJ's adult education team, our relationship-centered trainings introduce the core concepts of Restorative Justice as foundational practices in establishing equitable and just cultures.
What is Restorative Justice?
Restorative Justice is centering relationships in all we do, including when harm happens. Community Building Circles are dialogue-based spaces to build empathy, strengthen community, prevent conflict, and prepare for using Restorative Justice as a way to hold people accountable. This work is rooted in a culture shift away from incarceration & carceral thinking, disposability of human beings, three strikes laws/zero-tolerance policies, racist formal and informal policing, and disproportionately punitive disciplinary models.
Training Summary:
In this training, participants are introduced to basic trauma theory and the embodied effects of traumagenetic experiences while providing opportunities to connect with personal and collective resiliency practices. Participants explore key principles fundamental to a trauma-informed approach and reflect on how restorative practices, including Circles, can be used as a trauma-sensitive modality.
