Restorative Works! podcast featuring guests Ames Stenson and Rami El Gharib, co-founders of the Restorative Rainbow Alliance, and Lindsey Pointer and Kathleen McGoey, co-authors of The Little Book of Restorative Teaching Tools, to share the story behind the groundbreaking initiative to explore the creation and impact of the Restorative Rainbow Alliance’s Facilitator Code of Conduct. Together, they reflect on the urgent need for LGBTQ+ affirming practices within restorative justice, drawing from lived experiences, community dialogue, and the gaps that led to harm when identity and power were not fully considered in restorative conferences.

Through this process I was able to have my voice heard, to have my questions answered and to ask for what I needed to help me heal.

Restorative Justice signifies the dawning of a brand new justice, a Bright Sun, that … offers a broader view of justice inspired by indigenous values.

Each human is a complex and contradictory story

Joy Harjo

The Circle Process is a storytelling process. Every person has a story, and every story has a lesson to offer.

Relationship, Respect, Responsibility, Repair, and Reintegration teach us how to live together well and what to do to restore harmony when needed.

Beverly B. Title

Where there is hurt, there must be healing.

Chief Justice Robert Yazzie

Crime is a violation of people and relationships. It creates obligations to make things right. Justice involves the victim, the offender and the community in a search for solutions which promote repair, reconciliation and reassurance.

Howard Zehr

The field of restorative justice flows from many different ancient indigenous paths, be it the Maori in New Zealand or Navajo Peacemaking. We gain so much from these indigenous wisdoms about what justice looks like. They don’t bifurcate out justice as a different thing. Everything is addressed from the perspective of how are we in right relation with the earth and with each other.
