Develop the people who shape your culture.

Build a clear, shared understanding.

Effective implementation begins with understanding what restorative justice is, what it asks of people, and why it matters.

Everett Daily teaches restorative justice in clear, practical language, connecting its principles to the responsibilities and situations participants encounter. His teaching addresses common misunderstandings and helps people understand the relationship between community, care, accountability, consequences, and repairing harm.

Training can address:

• What restorative justice is and what it is not.
• The role of relationships and community in restorative work.
• Accountability with support.
• Consequences that educate, inform, and hold people responsible.
• How adults and leaders contribute to the conditions surrounding conflict and harm.
• The purpose of restorative practices and where they fit.

The focus is on helping participants understand the work well enough to make thoughtful decisions about their own practice.

Put understanding into everyday practice.

Knowing a practice includes understanding when to use it, why it is useful, and how our own approach affects the people involved.

Everett coaches teachers, security staff, deans, and administrators on implementing restorative practices with fidelity to their purpose. Coaching connects the practice to the relationships people navigate: student to student, adult to student, colleague to colleague, and staff to parent.

The work includes examining real situations, observing interactions, providing feedback, and offering coaching as people put their learning into use.

Coaching can address:

• Choosing and using restorative practices appropriately.
• Preparing for and having restorative conversations.
• Responding to conflict, offense, and harm.
• Recognizing the influence of tone, language, assumptions, and presence.
• Using authority to guide, protect, support, and hold people accountable.
• Reestablishing connection and expectations after a difficult interaction.

Connect how your people serve with the culture you want to create.

Culture takes shape through repeated interactions—how people are welcomed, heard, supported, corrected, and held accountable.

Empathy Evolved works with leaders and teams to understand those interactions and strengthen the practices that shape them. We help people examine their responsibility to those they serve and make adjustments in how they think, respond, and work together.

This engagement brings together learning about your organization, observation, workshops, training, real-time coaching, and feedback. The combination responds to your setting and the needs that emerge through the work.
