I Messages: A Great Tool to Use at Home
As we are spending more time cooped up together it is especially important that we have, and use, our best skills for resolving our conflicts peacefully. Here is a short video about a simple tool Peace Ed has been using for decades to keep the peace at school, in the neighborhoods and at home. Check out these simple instructions for using I Messages and try it out at home. This simple “friendly formula” really works. Make your own I Message video at home and share it on Facebook or Instagram with the hashtag #IResolveConflict and tag @PeaceEductionProgram to have your video shared by us!

A Message from Mr. D
A Message from Mr. D
Peace Education Program teaches essential conflict resolution skills that are informed by our latest understandings around trauma and brain science. One thing that we know and teach is that “When your emotions are high, your thinking is low.” Here is Peace Ed trainer and Navigators program facilitator Mr. D reminding us of just that.

How Our Brains Work Under Stress
How Our Brains Work Under Stress
Demonstrations against racism and police violence have ignited a citywide movement calling for justice. Young people are leading the protests and calls for reform. At Peace Ed we know that when emotions are high, thinking is low. Understanding how our brains work under stress can help. We want everyone’s best thinking as we re-imagine what our city and world can be.
