DC educators and school staff

Join me and my colleague Tone Carter for this 2h PD on Agreements Writing in Restorative Process.

Conducting effective preventative or responsive circles requires the facilitator to be able to help the participants create meaningful agreements that address the roots of the problem and are sustainable over time. In this workshop, we will explore how to create effective agreements between the parties involved, check for understanding and agreement, and utilize coaching skills to increase the chances for success over time. Some circles go “great” and then the behaviors or hurtful patterns come back. We will also examine the next restorative step if/when the agreements are broken. Participants will have the opportunity to practice these skills through interactive exercises and role-plays.
