Alternatives to Violence Project (AVP) Basic Workshop

An experiential workshop on conflict transformation skills including affirmation, respect for all, cooperation, communication, community building, and trust.

AVP Basic Workshop 26 10 Brooklyn SQUARE

We are holding a Basic AVP (Alternatives to Violence Project) Workshop at Brooklyn Meeting on Oct 16, 17, and 18.

The times will be 

  • Friday 5:30-8:30 pm
  • Saturday 10 am-8 pm (with meal breaks)
  • Sunday 9-11 am and 1-4 pm

Light snacks will be provided.

AVP workshops provide brave spaces that allow us to discover the transforming power that each of us has within. 

AVP workshops can empower participants to:

  • identify and manage strong feelings such as anger and fear,
  • deal more effectively with risk and danger,
  • build trust, empathy and good relationships with self and others,
  • communicate well in difficult situations and
  • understand why conflict happens and practice responding nonviolently.

This has been a life-changing experience for many past participants. We all have conflict of some type in our lives – professional or personal; public or private. Discover creative ways to transform it.
