Description: Target Audience: School Staff, Behavior and Mental Support Staff, Teachers
While restorative practices are primarily associated with formal circles and conferences that may be implemented a few times per week, Restorative Communication can be used daily to build relationships and work with conflict. As such, it is a foundation for building a restorative culture of care and respect. This two-day workshop will help educators and youth workers identify ways that language used during difficult or disciplinary conversations may undermine intended outcomes, contradict our own values, and create a disconnection with youth, peers, and colleagues.
DC Public School and DC Public Charter School who are interested in receiving 2 PLU’s for full participation in this course are asked to register for this course through OSSE’s new learning management system (LMS) platform. Educators can follow the instructions here to activate their account. Staff will only be able to receive two PLU’s by registering through the system. If you have issues or questions regarding the OSSE LMS registration, please contact Jessica Dulay via email at [email protected].
