Restorative Resolutions
"To build a more connected network of Circle Keepers in Rainier Beach and contribute to the support systems in our community before/after gun violence occurs."
Vision
The Restorative Resolutions project envisions Rainier Beach as a place where our community and especially folx who are victims of gun violence have ample support and connection to resources that not only offer healing but also provision of basic needs.
Program Description
This project is focused on Rainier Beach residents, centering on young people, Black and Brown people, working class people, and folx who are most impacted by gun violence
With special funding for 2022, it is a continuation of work that we have been doing for over seven years through YATTA Rising . At the end of 2022 there will be a group of organizations that have built up capacity to support victims of gun violence using restorative methods.
How You Can Be Involved
Come through to participate in any of our monthly circle spaces, community gatherings, and training opportunities! These will be developed as the year progresses and advertised accordingly.
