Update on the Restorative Programme for Victim/Survivors of Sexual Abuse in Spiritan Schools
Restore Together Easter Update:
The Saint Michael’s College Past Pupils Union notes the recent Easter Update From Restore Together.
Restore Together is a voluntary support group for victims/ survivors of sexual abuse in Spiritan schools (Blackrock College, Willow Park School, Rockwell College, St. Mary’s College, St. Michael’s College & Templeogue College). It is made up of victim/survivors and non-victims. Together it advocates for the provision of structures to aid healing from the trauma of abuse.
Restore Together engages with the Spiritan Order regularly regarding the development and urgent implementation of a comprehensive Restorative Programme to help bring healing to those who suffered as children and continue to suffer as adults.
The Saint Michael’s College Past Pupils Union supports the work of Restore Together and urges everyone in our community to be aware of it and encourage those of us who may need help and support to consider availing of it through the Spiritan School’s Restorative
Programme.
If you, or someone you know, would like to talk to someone, we ask you to contact timchapman@rjteam.net, Restorative Justice Team, in total confidence. Tim Chapman is an independent Restorative Justice expert, specifically chosen by Restore Together, who will be able to advise on the supports and advice available.
