AVP is not something we “do” to others. It develops a way of being that changes how we address conflict and how we bring ourselves to the problems and conflicts in our lives.</p><p align="left">Treat yourself to this introductory mini-workshop purely for personal growth, or make it a first step toward facilitating additional workshops.</p><p align="left">Alternatives to Violence Project (AVP) offers conflict transformation workshops in prisons, the community, or the classroom.</p><p align="left">AVP began in 1975 as a cooperative project between incarcerated people, Quakers, and activists in the Civil Rights movement. AVP is practiced in over 60 countries, in schools, prisons, refugee camps, addiction centers, conflict zones; working with gang members, veterans, the incarcerated, school students, indigenous peoples, child soldiers and more – the program has evolved and deepened to be about far more than violence reduction.</p><p align="left">You can learn more about AVP by visiting avpusa.org.</p><p align="left">Register soon as there are limited spots.
