Our Accountability Process
We (Cliff and Charity) were invited into an accountability process in January 2023. Since that time we have been actively participating in restorative justice and accountability. Part of accountability includes realizing that our shadows often lurk in the unconscious. Our process was deemed complete in August, 2025, as noted below.
In addition to accountability coaching, we’ve had numerous peer interactions, education in trauma informed practice, therapeutic interventions, and trainings related to power and oppression dynamics. We invite all who desire further information to review the details related to our accountability process which are outlined in our blogs which are all listed below.
Transparency is a core part of healing and accountability, and we invite any who have questions or desire to share information about any experiences of harm with us to contact our Accountability Coach Miles Hurwitz or our Accountability Supervisor Kamela Love at Transform into Love or on LinkedIn by completing our External Accountability Form.
We discontinued offering events on February 1, 2023, and are currently in the final phase of our accountability process including supervised practice. All updates on future plans are included in our blog (links below), and you can register for future updates.
Below you will find links to our Statement of Apology and Accountability, all our blogs, and the original Restorative Justice report if you wish to read the words of survivors. In addition, there’s a link to our updated Code of Conduct.
