Practice Groups and community learning events
Here you will find information on Restorative Circles Practice Groups being held around the world. Practice Groups are a great way to deepen your understanding of RC facilitation, and often involve the use of semi-simulated, or practice, Circles.
In the next few weeks, we will also be posting information on learning events around the world.
