WHAT WE OFFER
OUR PROGRAMS & INITIATIVES
At the Restorative & Transformative Justice Hub (The HUB), we are committed to fostering healing, accountability, and transformation within our community. Our work is rooted in restorative justice principles, focusing on addressing harm, rebuilding trust, and creating pathways for positive change.
Restorative Justice Circles
Our restorative justice circles provide a safe and structured space for individuals affected by harm; whether survivors, person who caused harm, or community members; to come together, share their experiences, and work toward mutual understanding and resolution. These circles are facilitated by trained practitioners who guide the process with care and respect.
Conflict Resolution Strategies
We offer mediation services designed to address conflicts in a way that honors the dignity of all involved. Our circle keepers work with parties to explore underlying issues, develop empathy, and reach agreements that are fair and sustainable, reducing recidivism, providing an alternative way to divert youth out of traditional legal systems.
Youth Engagement Programs
Understanding the unique challenges faced by young people, we offer specialized programs that engage youth in restorative practices. These programs provide them with the tools to navigate conflicts, understand the impact of their actions, and contribute positively to their communities. We intentionally collaborate with families, caregivers, and pro-social adult connections to ensure services are youth centered and family focused.
Community Healing Workshops
Our community healing workshops bring together groups to address collective trauma and foster resilience. These workshops are designed to strengthen community bonds, promote empathy, and support collective well-being.
Reentry Support
For individuals returning to the community after incarceration, we provide reentry support services that focus on building trust, offering guidance, and connecting them with resources that aid in their reintegration.
HOW WE WORK.
Our approach is collaborative and inclusive, ensuring that all voices are heard and respected. We believe in the power of community and the importance of working together to create environments where everyone can thrive. By prioritizing healing over punishment and transformation over retribution, we aim to build a more just and compassionate society.
Training & Education
We offer a variety of training and educational opportunities for individuals, organizations, and schools interested in implementing restorative practices. Our workshops cover topics such as conflict resolution, trauma-informed care, and restorative justice in practice.
