The 13th Speziale ADR symposium will bring together people who work both with at-risk youth who commit harm and with community stakeholders, to better collaborate to reduce recidivism and the “school-to-prison” pipeline by using restorative practices. To date, there has been limited collaboration and coordination between these systems.
The symposium will focus on what is happening in Connecticut, as well as nationally and internationally, using restorative justice processes to transform youth justice systems and make communities safer and more connected. We are honored to be joined by our keynote speaker, Robert "Roman" Haferd, former Restorative Justice Coordinator for the Office of the Attorney General of the District of Columbia.
