About Restorative Way

Restorative Way was founded 20 years ago by Dr. Will Bledsoe to advance and expand restorative communication practices and programming that help people move through traumatic stress, destructive and entrenched conflict and broken relationships in a way that is noble, honest, heart-full, and reintegrative.

Since that time, RWay practices and programming have been implemented in the justice system, k12 schools, universities, hospitals, families, family businesses, organizations and workplaces.

“To be a restorative practitioner requires being willing to step into the middle of conflict and contempt with courage, empathy, humility, and a ferocious commitment to the wellbeing of others. Restorative Way is committed to helping people build relationship-centric cultures and communities.”
