An Introduction to Restorative Justice and Healing Circles

Saturday, May 6, 8:30 – noon, Teresa of Calcutta Hall, Lower Level

Responding to harm in a way that fosters accountability and healing, Restorative justice is a growing movement that has seen an increase in awareness and in the many ways it can be applied. An introductory program to restorative justice and healing circles will be offered on Saturday May 6 at The Basilica.

Restorative justice is an approach to justice that emphasizes living in right relationship and resonates deeply with Gospel values and Catholic social teaching. The Basilica is committed to grounding, growing in understanding, and living the principles of restorative justice.

An opportunity to experience healing circles was offered on December 3^rd at the Basilica and the theme and application was racial justice. The response was very positive.

This introduction workshop on restorative justice will be offered on Saturday, May 6 from 8:30 until noon in the lower level of the church. Consider attending!
