Our mission is to train a network of youth and adult peacemakers who help build community and repair harm in all Houston neighborhoods.
Houston will become a restorative city where practices rooted in connection, healing, and liberation are embedded in schools, neighborhoods, and systems, so all Houstonians - especially those most impacted by harm and inequity - can thrive.

We offer Houston’s only cohort‑based restorative justice apprenticeship, a training for adults (18+) that builds the skills to facilitate circles addressing power, identity, and equity. In addition to the apprenticeship, we provide individual trainings in restorative circles, youth development, and conflict repair—equipping community members to navigate harm and strengthen relationships.
Cofounders Anita Wadhwa and Tisha Wilson graduated from the Common Justice Practitioners Lab. Their leadership is strengthened by ongoing collaboration with a national network of restorative justice practitioners, allowing Restorative Houston to integrate emerging strategies, shared learning, and field‑wide innovations into local practice as we craft a restorative diversion program.
