Peace-Building: Alternatives to Violence Afternoon Workshop
Are you seeking creative solutions to conflict? Participants will
explore constructive conflict, ways to release the pressure towards
violence through empowering affirmation, respect, community building,
cooperation, trust, "Transforming Power" guidelines, participatory
role–plays for practice, and shared life experiences. The full
weekend "basic" workshop will be described.
Although the content is oriented toward adults and older teens, ages
13 through 17 are welcome to participate with parental consent (form
for a parent to sign available at the workshop). More information on
the Alternatives to Violence Project (AVP) can be found at
www.avpusa.org.
At the workshop we'll put a basket onto a table for collection of an
optional donation of $zero to $15, depending on ability to pay, with
checks made out to "Alternatives to Violence Project". Proceeds
benefit AVP; the event facilitators are volunteers. Saturday Dec. 8th
2007 from 12:45 PM to 4:30 PM in the Borg-Warner Room at the Tompkins
County Public Library, 101 East Green Street (at Cayuga Street),
Ithaca, NY 14850.
