AAPI Restorative Justice Network
Are you a restorative justice practitioner, healer, conflict worker, circle-keeper, or facilitator? Do you have cultural heritage or ancestry from the Asia Pacific region?
Are you interested in connecting and building community with other practitioners?
You are invited to join a community of Bay Area AAPI folks who practice restorative justice with the intention of drawing connections between our identities, cultural knowledge, and the work of transforming conflict and harm.
We hope to:
-
Explore traditions of justice and peacebuilding from our ancestral homelands.
-
Bridge what we have learned in our families and ethnic communities with the field of restorative justice, elevating our unique perspectives.
-
Skill up people who work in AAPI communities to implement healing-based modalities for addressing harm.
-
Create a network of practitioners available for peer support and case referrals.
The Tended Garden
A learning and support space for BIPOC conflict workers
​​
As BIPOC conflict workers, we are on the frontlines of justice work—tending to the friction of a deeply polarized world. This can take a toll on our collective nervous systems. We can't pour from an empty well or grow from depleted soil.
The Tended Garden is a co-created sanctuary designed to disrupt White normative frameworks in conflict work, center our lived experiences, and nourish our well-being while co-learning alongside a supportive community of peers.
