Life In The Urban City | KEEP Program: How Restorative Learning is Transforming Academic Success for Youth

In this episode of Life In The Urban City, we discussed a hybrid, restorative tutoring program that is making a real difference in the academic success of the youth. Our guest, Osahon Obazuaye, KEEP Program Supervisor, shared the story behind the program's development and its positive impact on students. The after-school tutoring program combines restorative practice, resource/academic access, mentoring, social-emotional awareness, and the power of play, which all focus on building relationships, repairing harm, and promoting positive behavior. By incorporating this approach, the program helps students with their academics and supports their social and emotional well-being. This episode provides valuable insights into how restorative tutoring can be a transformative tool in supporting youth academic success and promoting positive school culture.   Please let us know if you would love to hear us discuss any topics as a student or youth worker.
