Newspaper Advances UMaine Restorative Discipline Institute

The coastal Village Soup newspaper group on Saturday published a University of Maine news release about the Restorative School Practices institute planned in June in Augusta. The institute is a collaboration of the UMaine Peace and Reconciliation Studies program and Restorative Justice Project of the Midcoast and instructs school teachers and staff about shifting from a punishment-based disciplinary system to one of reconciliation and community-building.
