Restorative Education is grounded in the idea that people are inherently good. It uses classroom instructional practices and research-based behavior strategies, to address trauma, increase behavioral awareness and build community.
Restorative Education gives students an opportunity to unpack significant circumstances that might hinder their success in the school and community.
The Restorative Learning Model (RLM) is an Educational Therapy developed by Dr. A. C. Young. RLM combines the principles of research-based behavioral theories and frameworks with cognitive competencies to strengthen a youth’s ability to respond appropriately socially, emotionally, and behaviorally.
The RLM Framework engages crucial topics impacting social, emotional, and behavioral responses by combining research-based behavior strategies with higher-order thinking skill targets to strengthen a student's capacity to properly respond to and learn from, traumatic events.
RLM considers the impact of cognitive ability on human behavior. It focuses on the appropriate identification, examination, intervention, and restoration of behavior through application in response to delinquent behavior.
RLM practices center on helping students respond to four critical questions: 1. What is the problem (Identification)? 2. What are the influencing factors or elements of the problem (Examination)? 3. How can the problem be resolved (Intervention)? 4. What new skills and habits were developed? (Restoration)
Written for practitioners, educators, justice professionals, and students of all levels, the RLM Ed-Behavioral Therapy Framework summarizes the interrelated constructs that describe the Restorative Learning Model. In Dr. A.C. Young's signature writing style, the book combines personal experiences, research, statistics, and best practices with process and application to create practical, easy-to-understand tools to help put theory into practice. Pre-orders opens in March 2025!
The RLM curriculum is developed by for specific student groups with varied intervention needs. Using short stories, charismatic characters and relevant scenarios, the curriculum inspires discussion, communication and develops cognitive competencies. Each curriculum contains 15 lessons that address specific topics such as anger management, de-escalation, accountability, processing emotions, resolving conflict, grief, etc. Each lesson in the curriculum utilizes research-based strategies from high yielding therapies and frameworks such as: Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Restorative Practices, Social Emotional Learning, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, and Applied Behavior Analysis, etc.
In addition, all series curricula introduce students to the RLM Behavior Management System. The behavior management system teaches students five steps for processing negative events or experiences, to prevent recurrences. Using the literary technique of journaling, students unpack negative experiences through a five step process: Acknowledgement, Identification, Recapitulation, Reflection, and Celebration. Each curriculum is intended for youth ages 12-19. Curriculum focus areas include: Juvenile Reentry, Bullying, Autism Spectrum Disorder, Mental and Emotional Wellness, and Human Trafficking.
RLM engages crucial topics impacting a youth’s social, emotional and behavioral responses by combining research-based behavior strategies with cognitive competency targets to strengthen a students' capacity to properly respond to and learn from, traumatic events and scenarios.
RLM incorporates tenets from various behavioral therapies into the instructional process to engage emotions, identify thinking patterns and develop positive behaviors overtime. RLM utilizes associated skills and processes within the educational framework to strengthen cognitive, academic and behavioral responses overtime.
RLM Training is led by Dr. A.C. Young and offered four times a year. Successful candidates will initially receive an RLM Apprentice Credential which requires a year of monitoring, data collection, and cohort reflection. Following a year of apprenticeship, candidates may apply for the RLM Practitioner Credential. This credential enables candidates to train other professionals and serve as leaders and champions of this crucial work. Interested candidates may begin the process below:
