Restorative Practices

The core principle of Restorative Practices is simple:  “human beings are happier, more cooperative, and more productive, and more likely to make positive changes in their behavior when those in positions of authority do things with them, rather than to them or for them.”*

The Akoben team is always aware of how we do things with those that we serve and work with. We realize that building relationships, working with the community and holding us all accountable is by no means a simple task. Success with our programs requires hard work and dedication on our part. Our team believe and teach that Restorative Practices is a key element to help heal our broken organizations, families, communities, and lives.

The Akoben Philosophy

We believe in the power of transformation:
  • Ourselves
  • Our youth
  • Our community

We lead the struggle to positively affect change through effective programs, presentations, workshops and consultations.
