the International Institute for Restorative Practices

The International Institute for Restorative Practices (IIRP) is an organization dedicated to promoting restorative approaches in education, justice, and community settings. It provides training, research, and certification to help individuals and institutions foster stronger relationships, accountability, and healing when conflicts or harms occur. The focus is on repairing relationships and restoring trust rather than punishment, emphasizing collaboration and understanding. The IIRP aims to create safer, more inclusive environments by encouraging proactive, empathetic responses to issues, ultimately supporting personal growth and community well-being through evidence-based restorative practices.
