CULTIVATING YOUNG RESTORATIVE LEADERSHIP AT LIBERTY UNION DISTRICT SCHOOLS.

In the fourth consecutive year of our work with the Liberty Union High School District in Brentwood, California, World Trust implemented a district-wide curriculum of Circle Keeping and Restorative Practices. We began in Year 1 working with the superintendent and all of the principals. In Years 2 & 3, we worked with cohorts of faculty and administrative staff on issues of racial equity, justice and trauma-informed care.

ADDRESSING RACIAL EQUITY WITH DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS.

We worked with 200-300 medical doctors and field workers on unconscious bias and strategic questioning. Moving past surface diversity and moving towards belonging, we organized members to understand that a a more inclusive and equitable organization is not just a matter of checking boxes, but will actually change how they operate internally and in the field. Thus, enabling them to work better with the people they serve.

WORLD TRUST
