Beyond Punishment: How Restorative Justice Transforms Kids

Beyond Punishment: How Restorative Justice Transforms Kids

What if, instead of punishing kids, we asked why they act out?

In this episode, retired educator and restorative justice educator Renee King shares how restorative practices transformed her school, cutting suspensions in half and replacing punishment with empathy, accountability, and connection.

Together, they explore what restorative justice really means, how teachers and parents can create healing spaces for kids, and why community, not control, is the foundation of change.
