What We Do

We are inclusion, co-creation, reconciliation, social innovation and Indigenous-Ally justice building.

I Help Companies Grow

Peacebuilding in self, relationships, communities and organizations,
in networks of Restorative Justice Circle Process.

The Restoring Circles Project shares an Indigenous toolkit of skills and processes that weave peace-building identities of actualization, belonging, purpose, and interdependence.

We are decolonizing, liberatory, anti-racism, anti-violence, anti-oppression, gender-fluid knowledge mobilization. We are personal, relational, systemic, transformative, collective and evolving.

The Restoring Circles Project is an Indigenous-Ally social innovation project to end violence in relationships and communities, by mobilizing evidence-based, transformative social technologies that come from Indigenous culture, with collaborative networks of restorative justice circles in social justice & Indigenous agencies.
