Conflict begins on a person-to-person level. Through our mission and vision, The Peace Center strives to create peaceful homes, schools, and communities locally, nationally, and globally. We work to prevent and address the roots of violence and promote an environment of physical and emotional safely through all of our programming. We teach conflict resolution skills and techniques to all age groups. Teaching practical skills for managing and resolving conflicts is the cornerstone of our work. From preventing bullying in schools to mediating neighborhood disputes, The Peace Center is committed to using conflict as a positive force to eliminate the spiral of violence whenever possible. We develop programs and provide services that reflect and serve the unique needs of individuals and organizations. Our programs are focused on problem-solving skills, and develop the emotional awareness needed to resolve conflict in their lives. Our staff has professional training in mediation, counseling, group facilitation, school planning, and organizational consulting. They utilize the most current conflict resolution curricula and assess their effectiveness through ongoing research-based evaluations.
