Join us for our Monthly Community Circles

At each Community Circle we are reminded of the Circle Guidelines and we always begin by setting our values. These Monthly Community Circles are the best way to get to know the RJ Durham community, to experience the Circle process and to think deeply about the values that guide us, both through reflection and through listening to other Circle members.

Become an RJ Facilitator​

RJ Durham Circle participants also have the opportunity to become RJ Facilitators who put restorative justice into practice through facilitating the process with our Durham neighbors. ​

THREE-STEP TRAINING PROCESS 

I.  RJ Orientation session 
II.   RJ Facilitation Training
III.  Serve as a Co-Facilitator 
Every RJ Durham case is unique and has opportunities for broader community involvement. Email us describing what skills and/or experience you hope to bring to RJ Durham. Or, attend an RJ Durham Orientation to learn more!
