Restorative Justice Georgia Community Member Training

Restorative Justice Georgia is holding a training for volunteers who are interested in serving as a Community Member. Some Restorative Justice processes will include a Community Group Conference that includes Community Members who represent the voice of the community in the conference. As people who are not directly involved in the situation, Community Members can sometimes see things other cannot. They help to identify the harm that was done to the larger community and discover ways that the responsible party can repair the harm. Community members think about broad areas of impact on the community, from physical to financial to emotional and use facts, feelings, and experiences to communicate that impact to the person who caused harm.

The training will take place on Saturday, April 22^nd from 9 a.m. -12 p.m. at the Atlanta Friends Meetinghouse, 701 West Howard Avenue, Decatur, GA 30030.
