2025 (In person)

 

In partnership with the Haa Tóoch Lichéesh Coalition (HTL), we are excited to announce the 2025 Restorative Justice Symposium:

Connect Deeply, Dream Big: Reframing Justice in Alaska through Restorative Practice

March 17 and 18, 2025

In person: Rasmuson Hall, UAA Main campus, Anchorage, AK

This year's restorative justice symposium is experiential, meaning that instead of informational panels and sessions, we will spend most of our time in circles, discussing justice through restorative practice. We are busy organizing our circle keepers to shape and lead these discussions, so the schedule of events is still in progress. However, below is a tentative agenda to guide your decision to join us:
