RJABC is seeking curriculum developers to support RJABC’s foundational training initiative. The initiative aims to develop a 'baseline' restorative justice training grounded in a principled approach, recommended best practices, and research-based evidence. The purpose of the foundational training initiative is to respond to the disparity of access to training for RJ programs and to address the need for developing and progressing a restorative justice approach that is victim-centered, trauma-informed, and culturally responsive. Application deadline April 26, 2024 with interviews to be conducted between May 8 and June 5, 2024.
