You’re invited!
We’re delighted to introduce Jackson County Associate Circuit Judge Mary Weir as an Honorary Chair for this year's Rise for Peace! Judge Weir has long understood what becomes possible when a community is given a way to resolve conflict rather than simply move through it. In lending her name to this year's event, she's telling Kansas City that restorative justice belongs at the center of how we respond to harm, not at the edges.
Her support is a statement about the mission. The work itself, the mediations, the reentry support, the conversations that keep young people out of the system, is carried by all of you.
Don’t miss your chance to rise up for a more peaceful and safe community for everyone!
Sponsorship opportunities, table and individual tickets (new this year!) on sale now.
