Press Release: Brooklyn Community Foundation Funds Restorative Justice Programs in 4 Brooklyn Schools to Reduce Suspensions and Arrests
Thank you to the Brooklyn Community Foundation for choosing Partnership with Children as one of four grantees to launch the Brooklyn Restorative Justice Project, designed to create a sustainable and racially just model for school-based disciplinary reform that can be scaled across the New York City school system. Studies show that student suspensions disproportionately impact minority students and increase dropout rates. We are proud of this recognition of our success in supporting students and schools by providing effective alternatives to traditional disciplinary methods.
