———————————-
‘Restoring Peace’ is a course that teaches restorative parenting, a philosophy that emphasizes building strong relationships in families, setting mutually age-appropriate boundaries for youth and guardians, and repairing harm when boundaries are crossed. It is taught through the lens of the 5 R’s of Restorative Practices: Relationship, Respect, Responsibility, Repair, and Reintegration/Resetting.
During this course we will reflect on parenting styles. Participants will learn that at the heart of restorative practices in parenting is the strengthening of the relationship between parent/guardians and children, while at the same time, holding children accountable for the impact of their actions.
After this class, parents/guardians will have a community of families working to include restorative practices into their parenting. At TCC, we help build a community of support, where parenting challenges are normalized and parents/guardians can provide each other with confidence and shared learning experiences. Course content covers:
Self Awareness/Ownership
Problem Solving Techniques
Intentionality
