The Detroit school district saw an increase in parent complaints about issues with their children’s schools and conflicts with staff in recent years. In response, the Detroit Public Schools Community District created a new office last year designed to handle those issues through restorative practices, which includes coaching through conflicts and checking in on parents’ well-being. The Family, Advocacy, Intervention, and Restoration, or FAIR, office uses parent coaches and DPSCD staff to help resolve issues in all of the district’s schools. Their work is also intended to boost enrollment and keep students in the district. The office handles issues ranging from facilitating restorative meetings between parents and school staff, as well as helping families navigate the student discipline process.
