National Catholic Conference on Restorative Justice

Join diocesan Prison and Jail Ministry Program Director Tricia Worrell October 5 – 7 for the bi-annual National
Catholic Conference on Restorative Justice. Co-hosted by Catholic Mobilizing Network and the Initiative on Restorative Justice and Healing on the campus of University of St. Thomas School of Law, this year’s National Catholic Conference on Restorative Justice takes on the theme of “Journeying Toward Restoration.”

Ever aware of past and ongoing violations of dignity and relationships, “Journeying Toward Restoration” signifies renewed promise for restorative justice as an instrument for human flourishing both within and beyond the institutional Church. Worrell will present a workshop at this conference on Restorative Leadership from Inside. In Michigan, our incarcerated friends have been leaders in transforming our criminal justice system and communities to one that is restorative. During Worrell’s workshop you will hear powerful stories of restoration from our incarcerated friends and learn ways you can be
the bridge to the outside to help accomplish their restorative goals. If you are interested in attending this important
conference, register soon!
