Restorative Leaders Student Organization

The Restorative Leaders Student Organization provides a community for students with a strong interest in restorative justice (RJ) and restorative practices, by providing a space for them to discuss, debate, and socialize over the love of RJ. This is also a space for students to be trained in and facilitate restorative practices, such as community building circles. 

If you’re interested in joining Restorative Leaders, please email RURestorativeLeaders@gmail.com. We also encourage you to visit our GetInvolved Page for any upcoming events or gatherings.

Restorative Justice Principles and Practice Byrne Seminar Course

This is an educational opportunity for first year students to learn more about restorative justice and interact with trained RJ facilitators. This course focuses on the fundamental principles and practices of restorative justice, explores the needs and roles of key stakeholders (impacted parties, responsible parties, communities, and justice systems), and introduces some of the primary models of practice at Rutgers and beyond.
