Restorative Justice in Action: Community Circles
This 1-hour Zoom training will explore the history and research on Community Circles, as a RJ practice, through direct instruction, short videos, and discussion. The attendees will experience a Community Circle either as a participant or as an observer (as they wish) and will debrief in reflection of how this can transfer to their specific school and its needs.
A sense of involvement and belonging in the most powerful force that shapes human behavior, causing us to follow rules and obey laws (or not). Community Circles is a practice rooted in Restorative Justice derived from aboriginal and native traditions; circles are built on caring relationships, positive expectation messages, and opportunities for meaning participation. This practice intentionally creates a space that lifts barriers between people, opening the possibility for connection, collaboration, and mutual understanding. In a classroom setting, Community Circles can be modified to meet the unique needs of each educator and group of students, offering a simple yet structured way to increase the sense of involvement and belonging in the classroom and the school as a whole.

Intended Audience:
Teachers, Care-Givers, Counselors, Administrators, Mediators

Location:  Distance learning via Zoom.


Registration fee:  
$79.99/per person

Date and Time:
Monday, November 07, 2022   4:00 to 5:00 p.m.

Equipment: Laptop computer with an internet connection

Presenter:  Emily Sallee is an Assistant Professor of Counseling at the University of Montana as well as
the Executive Director of the Montana Safe Schools Center housed at UM. Emily’s
experiences as a professional school counselor led to her drive in training future school
counselors and continuing advocacy efforts for the profession by serving on the MSCA Board
of Directors and in various other roles throughout the state. Emily is also the part-time school
counselor at Woodman School and subs for school counselors and educators in her
communities to both stay attune to current educational challenges and contexts as well as to
keep her school counselor-bucket full. While other people’s kiddos tend to be easier to work
with, Emily has three of her own to wrangle, in addition to a growing menagerie and ever-
increasing lists of books to read, foods to eat, and trails to run.
