Restorative Practices Summer Educators’ Institute (In-Person) 2026
Restorative Practices Educators’ Summer Institute
The Restorative Practices Educators Institute is a three-day workshop for anyone who works with youth and young adults in an educational or leadership building capacity. Over 18 hours, participants will have the opportunity to engage with TCC’s mot up-to-date restorative practices education, from philosophy to implementation!
Restorative Practices Summer Institute objectives:
- Learners will define key terminology related to restorative practice implementation, including: “restorative practices”, “conflict”, “harm”, “informal conversations”, “formal harm repair circles”, “community building circles”
- Learners will plan and facilitate community building circles that include age-appropriate activities for the students in their classrooms
- Learners will practice engaging youth in non-violent conflict navigation through employing affecting questions and “I”-statements
- Learners will explore the formal harm repair process by engaging in role play practice as facilitators, support people, person who caused harm, and person harmed
- Learners will identify the next steps needed for their schools/organizations to make paradigm shifts away from punitive responses to conflict and toward restorative responses to conflict
After attending the Restorative Practices Educators Institute, teachers, administrators, and wrap-around staff will have a strong foundational understanding of restorative practices and create action steps to begin or strengthen the implementation of restorative practices in their schools.

What are Restorative Practices?
We define Restorative Practices as an approach to achieving equity and justice through building strong community relationships and collectively identifying and addressing harms, needs and obligations in order to heal when harm is done.
