What People Are Saying

“The Voices Heard, Voices Known: Let’s Talk Restorative Justice: Equity in the Community Conference provided a very rare space for an Indigenous perspective to be heard–unadulterated.  Thank you Dr. Lang!”

Edward, Senior Editor

“The virtual conference provided the opportunity to have real conversations about what it means to function from a restorative lens when working on the collegiate level. Dr. Raj pushed me to think about how I need to change how I interact with students so that there was space for them to bring more of who they are and what they know to the course. The discussion of funding for Restorative is one we often avoid because we struggle to demonstrate the quantitative results that funders tend to lean towards. I was inspired by the discussion of ways to pursue funds to support the RP work we do. Thank you Dr. Lang for bringing to the table speakers with a broad range of experiences!”

Nikki Chamblee, Restorative Practitioner

“Colorizing Restorative Justice revolutionized how I understand my role as a community activist and expanded my worldview. There are many nuances to social justice work and it’s essential to always be learning. I am so grateful for the chance to learn from this community’s wise and compassionate companions on the road to a more just world.”
