THE CENTER
Creating Space for Healing and Transformation.
We help organizations respond to harm differently. Through restorative practices, training, technical assistance, and healing-centered support, we equip reentry and survivor-support organizations to create pathways toward accountability, repair, and belonging.
Our Mission
The Darren B. Easterling Center for Restorative Practices builds the capacity of the reentry and survivor-support ecosystem to respond to harm with restorative practices rooted in healing, accountability, dignity, truth-telling, and belonging.

I Am Enough©
A therapeutic intervention model specifically designed for women who’ve lived the same experiences, working in collaboration with local mental health professionals who have an expertise in trauma-informed care.
