Thanks for posting this, Karen.  The public learning events will be Oct 12-16.  They will likely go all day and into the evening.  Having been to several of these in the past, I can tell you from my personal experience that they're fantastic.  There is never any fee to get in (he makes a request for participants to contribute whatever they are want at the end of the learning event).  We'll post registration information as soon as it's available. In the meantime, please do spread this around.  Dominic is an internationally known restorative justice practitioner/teacher and this will be his only visit to North America in 2011, so folks will come from all over the continent for this.<br>
<br>Happy to answer questions,<br>Mikhail (who along with Elaine Shpungin) is hosting and planning Dominic's visit.<br><br><div id="WISESTAMP_SIG_8661"><span style="font-size: 13.3px; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><div style="border: 1px solid #e5e5e5;background-color: #f8f8f8;padding: 0.8em 0.8em 0.3em 0.8em;">
