Join us on the third Wednesday of every month at the Winooski Memorial Library for our Community Restorative Justice Circle. Facilitated by Kayla Loving, Restorative Justice Coordinator at Spectrum Youth & Family Services, the circle is one of the most well-known restorative justice practices.
We will eat together and sit in circle to discuss current events and for our next meeting, focus on July's Disability Pride Month. Led by Asher Rich, Restorative Justice Intern, they aim to provide a safe space to assess our own biases towards those with disabilities and will lead a discussion on how to be a better disability ally.
If you have an interest in getting to know your neighbors on a deeper level, learning about restorative justice, and organizing for change, consider joining us. Everyone is welcome. Interpretation can be provided if we are notified ahead of time.
Our next meeting will be held at the Winooski Memorial Library on Wednesday, July 20th from 6 - 7 PM.
"Restorative justice is a philosophy and set of practices, rooted in indigenous teachings, that emphasize our interconnection by repairing relationships when harm occurs while proactively building and maintaining relationships to prevent future harm" (Amplify RJ).
