The Incredible Healing Powers of Vicarious Restorative Justice

Yowei has a problem. She's having trouble explaining the show to people who don't get it. She knows proxy conversations work. But why? How? Part 1 of a 4-part quest to solve the mystery of proxy conversations. Yowei learns about a proxy conversation happening in a completely different context: restorative justice with proxy survivors and offenders.    From the episode: Learn more about Dr. Alissa Ackerman and her work: www.alissaackerman.com Ampersands Restorative Justice: www.ampersandsrj.org Alissa's book Healing from Sexual Violence: www.safersociety.org/store/healing-from-sexual-violence/   --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Proxy is an independent podcast and we rely on listeners.
