How to Get Involved

We are delighted with your interest in Restorative Schools as an important way to address major problems in Maryland’s public school system: chronic absenteeism, teacher turnover, the school to prison pipeline, students’ mental health and the persistent and shameful opportunity/ achievement gap among Black, Latino, and white students.

We hope you will underline your interest by giving us your contact information in the form below so we can share thoughts and opportunities to help with you.

The goal of Voices for Restorative Schools is to enable all of Maryland’s 1,400 schools to be Restorative Schools. This year we are focused on building a large group of people in every county and Baltimore City who understand restorative practices, what it is, why it works. We need you to help us. There are two easy things you could do to help right now: 

1. Ask one or two of your friends to go to the website…voicesforrestorativeschools.org and sign up to learn more through the Get Involved page.
2. Gather a small group in your neighborhood, a club you belong to, your faith community adult ed class, even your book club and ask us to come to one of your meetings and hold a roundtable discussion about restorative practices and the issues in public schools.
