OSI-Baltimore will partner with the International Institute for Restorative Practices to present it’s annual World Conference, which will take place virtually January 26 – 28.
The conference includes 23 sessions, including Schools that Teach the Change We Want to See, Community Applications of Restorative Practices, Reckoning with Systemic Injustice, Let’s Talk about Community Responses to Crime, Incarceration and Reintegration, and Restorative Workplaces: Voice, Equity and Purpose.
OSI-Baltimore has been working to bring restorative practices to Baltimore City and Maryland schools for many years (read about the origins of that work here) and, in recent years, has partnered with city and state officials to bring trauma-responsive services to government agencies with the Healing City Act and Healing Maryland’s Trauma Act.
