This 5K & 1 mile family fun run walk is about building peace and community, which we all so sorely need. It is about loving, healing and interacting with each other in a better way. Laughter is a great way to start. Our family text Dad Jokes every morning. So, I thought to share them with you, our online family. So here we go...Good morning fam!
I was so confused last night when my printer just started playing music...

Ubuntu, a concept emphasizing interconnectedness and community, can be seen as a foundation for restorative justice, which focuses on repairing harm and promoting reconciliation rather than solely punishment.
Here's a deeper look at the connection between Ubuntu and Restorative Justice:
Ubuntu's Core Principles:
Interconnectedness: Ubuntu emphasizes that individuals are connected to others and that their actions affect the community as a whole.
Compassion and Empathy: Ubuntu promotes understanding and compassion for others, even those who have caused harm.
Community and Harmony: Ubuntu aims to foster a sense of community and social harmony, where individuals are valued and respected.
Restorative Justice Principles:
Focus on Harm and Repair: Restorative justice aims to address the harm caused by crime and to repair the relationships that have been damaged.
People who have been harmed are more involved and happier with the outcomes. People who did the harm are brought to their greater selves.
Yours in Nonviolence, Justice and lasting Peace.

Phoenix Peace Builders is working with other local organizations to launch a youth diversion program. It aims to support young people (ages 18-25) who are at risk of incarceration, offering them resources and accountability while helping to address the root causes of safety in our community. The person harmed and the person charged work in unity to develop a restoration plan.
