Our Mission

Projects for a Civil Society seeks to empower people to transform conflicts in their lives and in their communities, through experiential learning, violence reduction, trauma recovery, and reparative and restorative justice. While we see this as necessary throughout society, we are especially focused on helping populations in special need including:

• youth
• gang intervention
• transition and reentry from detention/incarceration
• veterans
• immigrants from war torn areas
• people in armed conflict zones

Workshops

Projects for a Civil Society periodically offers workshops to train people in the community in alternatives to confrontational communication that will help them resolve conflicts in more peaceful ways. Please click here to view dates and information about our current workshops.

Alternatives to Violence Project

The Alternatives to Violence Project (AVP) is a training program enabling participants to deal with potentially violent situations in new and creative ways. Workshops are run by our trained facilitators and are experiential (not based on lectures).
