Applied Restorative Justice

Catalog description

In this proposed course students will learn to apply the principles of Restorative Justice to real world challenges in the community, juvenile justice, adult corrections, and re-entry/post incarceration. Through studying real life scenarios and collaborative problem-solving students will look at the complexity of the impacts of harm and alternative interventions that are being used in contrast to contemporary mainstream practices. The students will work in groups to encourage collaborative learning and promote diversity of shared voices.
