Iluminar's Harm & Conflict Facilitator Training - SUMMER 2024

Led by CCEJ's adult education team Iluminar: Training and Coaching for Justice, our relationship-centered trainings introduce the core concepts of Restorative Justice as foundational practices in establishing equitable and just cultures.

What is Restorative Justice?
Restorative Justice is centering relationships in all we do, including when harm happens. Community Building Circles are dialogue-based spaces to build empathy, strengthen community, prevent conflict, and prepare for using Restorative Justice as a way to hold people accountable. This work is rooted in a culture shift away from incarceration & carceral thinking, disposability of human beings, three strikes laws/zero-tolerance policies, racist formal and informal policing, and disproportionately punitive disciplinary models.
 
Training Summary:
Our in-depth 3-day Harm & Conflict Facilitator Training will take your Restorative Practices to the next level in situations where harm has occurred. Participants will learn specific strategies to address harm and conflict in restorative ways that center relationships and minimize exclusion. Building on our Community Building Training, this advanced skill-building session will help you unpack conditioned conflict responses, roleplay specific harm scenarios, and lead Harm & Conflict circles to give you firsthand practice with restorative responses. This training is especially recommended for all those involved in any aspect of creating policies around or implementing disciplinary practices.
