Restorative justice in education promotes values and principles that use inclusive, collaborative approaches for supporting students and educators in the community called “School.” RJE approaches validate the experiences and needs of everyone within the community, particularly those who are disenfranchised, oppressed, or on the margins. Restorative justice practices allow all stakeholders—students, staff, teachers, administrators, family members, and community—to act and respond in ways that heal and restore. Information about the Restorative Justice in Education certificate and master’s degree concentration will be shared.
