About the Restorative Justice Student Leadership Program (RJSLP):
The RJSLP was developed to empower students to take an active role in fostering a positive and inclusive school culture through the application of restorative justice principles. This program provides students with the training and resources needed to become ambassadors for restorative practices within their academic community and the healthcare environments where they will practice.
Student leaders learn to facilitate restorative circles and mediate conflicts to create a safe and supportive environment for their peers. The RJSLP emphasizes shared responsibility and accountability among students, addresses interpersonal conflicts, and promotes constructive communication. By engaging students as leaders in the restorative justice process, the program instills a sense of agency and community-building among the student body.
