Learn more about how our Wisconsin Restorative Justice Summit attendees responded to our 2024 post-event evaluation in the report below.
Restorative justice is based on the idea that we are interconnected and woven together in humanity. Crime, wrongdoing, and unjust systems break down those relationships and lead to a ripple effect that breaks down communities. Restorative Justice prioritizes repairing harm and recognizes that maintaining positive relationships with others is a core human need. In weaving, the same is true—the structure forms the support for all the interconnected pieces and if one if broken or flawed it can cause the whole piece to fall apart. Justice also ripples outward and leads to wellbeing and wholeness in our communities. As we create artwork through weaving, we are reminded that by securing each individual piece we make a beautiful tapestry where each individual piece is as important as the next.
