Nicholas Bradford, Founder & Executive Director
A lifelong educator with extensive experience in challenging students inside and outside the classroom. In 2009 Nicholas Bradford started his Restorative Justice education in VT. Working in therapeutic settings, schools, afterschool programs, and justice settings has shaped a skill set that delivers a comprehensive Restorative Justice framework.
Having worked with many schools and districts he has built a robust program that gives schools, educators, and students the skills and structures they need to create a culture of belonging and success in spite of conflict.
Benjamin Goldenhour, Director of Restorative Start
Benjamin Goldenhour, Director of Restorative Start
Benjamin is serious about play, encouraged in chaos, and loves a good ol’ fashioned mistake. Having worked alongside youth for two decades in myriad capacities, he has dedicated his professional life to the practice of continuous growth and an ever-evolving love of learning. In 2016, after years of working in various education and youth spaces, he founded an anti-bias Early Learning Center grounded in the values of Restorative Justice, Self-Development, and Community Service. Following seven years of leading that stellar school community, Benjamin now brings his presence and passion to NC4RJ’s growing ecosystem of relationship-strengthening programming with Restorative Start.
He is a father, a partner, a son, a brother, a friend, an uncle, a neighbor, a musician, and a creative cook with mixed results.
