Compassionate Listening:

We implement Restorative Justice through apology and through Compassionate Listening. This practice entails listening with one’s heart to heart to be present with another person in their pain. It involves developing and expressing deep empathy with a person in pain whether or not we agree with all of his opinions. We have adapted for our uses Compassionate Listening as developed by The Compassionate Listening Project (www.compassionate listening.org)
