https://lnkd.in/ekb4EPSi What Restorative Practices look like...space, time and intentional relationship (as partners) and community building, youth-to-youth, staff-to-youth, staff-to-family, family-to-family, and staff-to-staff. There are no shortcuts. Even community schools fail when there is no community at the center. Wraparound services can't program you into a sense of community. Schools cannot be safe spaces if they don't have time and place-bound spaces to make everyone feel seen, connected, valued and safe. You can't manufacture a sense of a beloved community in crisis or as a response to harm when there has been no community built. Restore a sense of community in schools. Many thanks to schools like these, MENTOR Maryland | DC for its Relationship-Based Schools Approach and @CommunityScience for sharing the power of a Sense of Community with their index and tools. Build a community in each school as a pillar and a school design process. Don't just try to summon one superficially based on circular seat configurations as a response to incidents. Circles without communities that have been built present are just circles, not community circles.
