Whether you are a facilitator of restorative practices, a teacher, law enforcement officer, or administrator looking to expand or improve restorative resources, or simply a person who wants to see more healing social practices, we hope this site will provide information, inspiration, and solidarity!
In recent years we have seen the beginnings of powerful shifts in both criminal justice and school discipline approaches. The use of RJ practices is rising in a variety of ways throughout the country as a prevention, diversion and even healing opportunity. May these practices continue to grow and inform both our responses to challenging situations, and also the very connective fabric of our communities and our individual lives.

As we continue to develop our website, we are gathering information about what you are doing across the state of Florida. We want to know what challenges exist for you, where the model programs/schools/counties are, and how we can support your efforts.
We are well on our way to creating and sharing a statewide directory of practitioners, programs, policies and other resources to grow our statewide movement and assist you.
Please click here to share your contact info so that you are included!
Our hope is to have a quarterly conference calls to connect and grow our statewide movement. Your voice is important to us. Please stay in the loop so that you are aware of latest information, upcoming events, legislative information, and new companions in Restorative Justice and Restorative Practices!
With Care, Gratitude, and Solidarity,
