Beyond Justice: A Community Training in Restorative Practices
What is restorative justice? More than just a court alternative, restorative practices teach us that we hold the power to build community safety, resilience, and communication. Join the Mediation Center of Dutchess County (MCDC) to learn and practice these skills!
We designed this training for everyday folks who work with others and want to improve their relational skills. Interested? Here are the basics:
- Training will take place Wednesday, 5/13, Thursday 5/14, Thursday, 5/21, and Friday 5/22
- Training will run from 9 am – 4 pm each day
